From Trickster to Badman - Paperback
by John W. Roberts (Author)
To protect their identity and values, Africans enslaved in America transformed various familiar character types to create folk heroes who offered models of behavior both recognizable to them as African people and adaptable to their situation in America.
Roberts specifically examines the Afro-American trickster and the trickster tale tradition, the conjurer as folk hero, the biblical heroic tradition, and the badman as outlaw hero.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
