Summary/Abstract: The Master is a semantic category which exists in every culture and in every historical moment in the world. The tasks and the role of the master in society are changing, but nevertheless, masters continue to support the development of science, art, education or moral systems. There are many different contexts for this category that reveal specific aspects of being the master, as well as the value of the relation between a master and a student. The aim of this text is to characterize them and take readers on a literary and scientific journey through different cultures, past centuries, and social institutions that will help us to better understand the phenomenon of the master(s).
