Trickster makes this world : how disruptive imagination creates culture

Hyde, Lewis, 1945-2008
Book
Lewis Hyde brings to life the playful and disruptive side of the human imagination as it is embodied in the trickster mythology. He revisits the old stories - Hermes, Krishna, Coyote - and holds them up against the lives and works of more recent tricksters such as Picasso, Duchamp and Ginsberg.
