Trickster in Ginsberg e-bog

This scholarly close reading of Allen Ginsberg's "e;Howl"e; considers the iconic poem through a four-part trickster framework: appetite, boundlessness, transformative power and a proclivity for setting and falling victim to tricks and traps. The book pursues various different narratives of the trickster Coyote and the historical and biographical contexts of "e;Howl"e; from a truly interdisciplinary perspective. This study seeks to contribute to the current literature on the poetry of the Beats and of Allen Ginsberg, specifically his "e;Howl,"e; and the ways it continues to expand in meaning, depth and significance today.
