2	Tobacco and Tar Babies: The Trickster as a Cultural Hero in Winnebago and African American Myth Squibb, Catherine 01 December 2015 (has links) This thesis explores the trickster character through the lens of his role as a cultural hero. The two characters that I chose to examine are from North American myth, specifically Winnebago Hare and Brer Rabbit. These two characters represent the duality of the trickster while simultaneously embodying the lauded abilities of the hero. Through their actions these two characters shape culture through the very action of disrupting societal norms. trickster culture hero Brer Rabbit Winnebago Hare mythology African American Literature Native American Literature African American Studies Indigenous Studies Literature in English, North America
