The following essay aims to investigate one of the most significant myths in the history of the collective imagination, the myth of the Minotaur, through a systemic perspective that combines the sciences of man and literature. The premise, which acts as a subtrace, is that only an interdisciplinary and multidimensional perspective can restore the complexity of a cultural product that has countless metaphorical and meaningful levels within it, which presents itself as a medium between man and the world and is therefore in constant communication with society. Since myth is a story that has the potential to constantly become different, to be narrated without exhausting itself, one of the ways in which the myth relives, transforming itself, but never extinguishing its original core, is literary narration. Literary production, in fact, has contributed to the process of sedimentation of myth in the imagination. The aim of this essay is to arouse interest in a myth that is able to offer existential as well as intellectual answers, and to entice the reader to enter the labyrinth, to get lost, to wonder about its secret.
