Best Answer

Yes

Icarus was the son of Daedalus who built the labyrinth to keep the Minotaur in,

they were both prisoners of King Minos in Crete

They wanted to escape and go back to Greece, so Daedalus built them wings with wax and feathers, he told his son not to fly too high cause the wax may melt but the son didn't listen to this piece of advice, flew too high, the sun made the wax melt and the wings fell apart, the son fell in the sea and died.

Is daedelus and icarus a tale?

Yes. Daedelus was the genius who created the Labyrinth for King Minos to keep the Minotaur in. When King Minos imprisoned him and his son Icarus after the completion of the maze Daedelus created wings of wax and feathers for he and Icarus to fly away. Icarus flew too close to the sun however, and melted the wax of his wings, falling to a watery grave in the ocean. Check out Jim Henson's Storytellr: Greek Myths. The entire story, and some other good ones are told there.
