Esta obra de fico � protagonizada por Zadig um virtuoso homem da Babilnia cuja vida passa por uma s�rie de reviravoltas e infortnios apesar de sua extraordin�ria erudio e de sua busca por viver em conformidade com as leis e costumes de seu tempo. Segue-se o curso da introspeco e contemplao do destino do bondoso Zadig: � ferido e humilhado ao defender sua prometida recolhe-se casa de campo ap�s os fracassos amorosos cai nas graas de um rei mas reiteradas adversidades o colocam prova obrigando-o a defenderse de acusaes e a tentar salvar-se de multas e prises. Corriqueiro em Voltaire que seus tratados hist�ricos ensaios e contos se associem reflexo filos�fica portanto Zadig ou O Destino compartilha em certa extenso traos de ironia presentes em Cndido ou O Otimismo guiado pela escrita sagaz e sarc�stica de Voltaire oportuna para a expresso de suas cr�ticas a respeito do poder da inveja da riqueza do orgulho dos regimes pol�ticos e das instituies religiosas.
