*Finish Reading "El Bizzaron"
---_Folklore, Myths, & Legends_ pp. 321-332
*In at least 3/4 of a page (college-ruled), respond to the BOTH PARTS of the following prompt:
First, define the archetypal trickster. Use examples from "Anansi," "El Bizzaron," and at least one video clip to support your claims. Quote the myths, and document your quotes ("Title of Story" #).
Finish by expressing an opinion about WHY the trickster exists? What do we get from his stories that we don't get from, say, cosmogonies or hero-stories? What purpose does he serve in a culture? Of what does he remind us? What do his stories teach/show?
Scoring Guide:
15: Answers all parts of prompt convincingly with well-chosen examples.
13: Missing examples from one "text" or answer is slightly underdeveloped.
11: Missing examples from more than one "text" or answer is underdeveloped.
0: Missing or incomplete.
