Document Summary
Section 0201: once you have read the story of daedalus and icarus several times, write a re-telling of the story in your own words. Your summary should be about 100-150 words in length. Daedalus was a magnificent inventor but tactlessly angered king minos, ruler of. Eager to flee the island, daedalus used wax to construct wings for himself and his son icarus. Daedalus warned his son to not fly too low or the seawater will dampen the wings and not too high or the sun will melt them. Icarus heeded his father"s advice for but became arrogant. He was having too much fun in his newfound freedom and flying that he forgot the warning and flied too close to the sun. His wings melted, and icarus plummeted to the sea and drowned. Your analysis should be about 100-150 words in length. One of the issues is never to overestimate the limit of one"s abilities.
