“Soaring Towards the Sun”: The Icarus Complex in Daphne Du Maurier’s The Flight of the Falcon
Bird-men, compelled fatefully to soar sun-ward, haunt Daphne Du Maurier’s novels and short stories. Her incessant re-working of the myth of Icarus finds its climax in her later novel, The Flight of the Falcon (1965), in which Aldo Donati dons Daedalus ...

Bruegel’s 'Landscape with the Fall of Icarus' [PDF]
Ovid’s Metamorphoses tells the story of Icarus – his tragic flight with man-made wings, the melting of the wax that bound them, and the ensuing fall to his death. This moment has been immortalized across the arts and through several mediums, but none are

Reassessing long-standing meteorological records: an example using the national hottest day in Ireland [PDF]
This analysis highlights the potential value in reanalysing early national meteorological records from around the world. These were oftentimes measured via techniques that preceded standardisation of instrumentation and methods of observation and thus ...

A Comparative Study of Sun and Flight as Symbols in the Myth of Icarus, and the Poetry of Attar Neishabouri [PDF]
Relying on Yung’s theories of collective unconscious, and in the framework of American school of comparative literature, this study is an attempt to compare sun and flight as symbols in different versions of the myth of Icarus in English poetry, with ...
