The aim of the study is to explore the limit and the limitless of the Creator as concepts those reveals potentialities of being contained by The Shadow, as part of The Self that generates identity and alterity. The context of this study is Valeriu Anania's drama "Mesterul Manole", where the approach is a hermeneutics one, but the intention is to extend the analysis towards an interdisciplinary approach due to the multiple ways that identity and alterity reveals on the background of the creation. We wish to draw attention to the mythical-symbolic elements that catalyzes the relation between the creator and his creation, as alternating light and shadow, Apollonian and Dionysian in a World of correlations, a world that contains same I-You, I and The Other. The drama is a space where the antinomies: light/darkness, diurnal/nocturnal, real/transcendental are bringing the imaginary and objectivity into a manageable collaboration that resonate a sense of reality in order to make seen the unseen and where The Shadow is revealed as a partner for every character that oblige to confrunt The Self.
