The Fortune is a one of basic concepts functioning both in literature and in moral discourse of the Renaissance. The main diffi culty that Christian writers are facing while dealing with this concept, is the defi nition of the Fortune’s prerogatives: it is responsible for unpredictable and changeable course of human life, yet it is also subject to the rational and just Divine Providence. The paper investigates this problem in three tales (10, 42, 57) from the collection Les comptes du monde adventureux signed by A.D.S.D. The author proves that, according to the moralist narrator, the protagonists who follow their own passions, are unconditionnally subject to whims of the hostile and cruel Fortune. Those who choose as guides God and reason, can count on Providence intervention. This position distinguishes A.D.S.D. from the views of Masuccio Salernitano, whose tales he has adapted in this collection.
