Jungian analyst Del McNeely discusses the trickster archetype and women. Tricksters by their very nature force us to question our sense of order and morality. The mercurial, the paradoxical trickster twists us open to something new, something larger than our stacked and ordered ordinary selves - but to combine that with the feminine and with evil. This text presents the low-down on the female tricksters that have fascinated and ensnared us from Sheherazade through to the Mata Hari and right down to the fatal attraction next door.
