Question

Central idea of Icarus and Daedalus
Thanks

Answer 1

Explanation: Daedalus and Icarus, like most myths, teaches us a lesson. Daedalus tells his son, “Don't fly too close to the sun.” Since it is not likely that any of us will wear wings made of feathers and wax, the main idea, or theme, of this story is not a literal lesson about how high to fly.

Answer 2

Daedalus and Icarus is a Greek myth about a father and son, and their entrapment in the labyrinth with the Minotaur. Daedalus built the maze, so he knew how best to escape. The only way to be free was to escape through flight. Daedalus built wings for himself and his son, but these came with a warning.
