Sample Book Insights:
#1 Trickster stories, even when they have much more complicated cultural meanings, preserve a set of images from the days when what mattered most was hunting. Trickster learns how to keep his stomach full by inventing the first fishnet.
#2 Trickster is both a culture hero and a fool, clever predator and stupid prey. He is able to imagine the fish trap because he has been a fish himself, and nothing counters cunning but more cunning.
#3 The tension between predator and prey is one of the great engines that has driven the creation of intelligence. In evolutionary theory, the tension between predator and prey is one of the great engines that has driven the creation of intelligence.
#4 The trickster must do more than feed his belly; he must do so without himself getting eaten. His intelligence springs from appetite in two ways: to satiate hunger and to subvert all hunger not its own.
