The myth of Icarus and Daedalus

Title:: The myth of Icarus and Daedalus
Speaker:: Amy Adkins
Description:: In mythological ancient Greece, Icarus flew above Crete on wings made from wax and feathers, defying the laws of man and nature. To witnesses on the ground, he looked like a god, and he felt like one too. But, in his society, the line that separated god from man was absolute, and the punishment for mortals who attempted to cross it was severe. Amy Adkins explains the myth of Icarus and Daedalus. [Directed by TED-Ed, narrated by Addison Anderson].
