Sentence examples of "Fortuna" in English

<>
Translations: all2 фортуна2
Machiavelli referred to it as fortuna: the events that shape us and determine our wellbeing are often beyond our reason and control. Макиавелли относился к ней как к Фортуне: события, которые формируют нас и определяют наше благополучие, часто существуют вне сферы нашей деятельности и контроля.
But alongside this Christian understanding of God's providence is another figure, the pagan figure of Fortuna, who holds her wheel on which all men, king and commoner, rise and fall. Но наряду с христианским пониманием Божьего промысла есть и другой образ — языческий образ Фортуны, на колесе которой поднимаются и падают все люди — и короли, и простолюдины.
