amusements

December 5th, 2006

Trickster is a word that can have many definitions. It can mean pulling a prank on someone or a practical joke. When I think of the word trickster, I think of an old lady, perhaps even my grandmother saying to me when I was little while rocking on a chair saying, “Ohh that trickster”. On pages 56-57, an example of a trickster is when the Indian boys run by making Indian noises w/their mouths and pretend shoot one another and the one yells, “Bang, you’re dead Indian.”

    I agree with what you think of when you think of the word “Trickster.” I kind of like like the relationship of who you though would be saying it too. Good stuff.
