The other two tales being analyzed are The Algonquin Cinderella and Tam and Cam. These tales have more differences than similarities. Their similarity is within the magic. The magic is based off of the ideals of the time. In The Algonquin Cinderella, the magical aspect about it is her wonderment and innocence. In Tam and Cam it is within her religion, Buddhism. They are similar because they are social strengths based on the time and culture.

The theme the two stories share is about growing up. In the story "Brothers are the Same" Temas had to attempt to slay a lion to prove to the Masai

For example, in the first tale, Anansi and the Sky God have a deal that Anansi must complete to get the stories and Anansi completes the task truthfully. In the other story, Coyote makes a deal with Thunder, but he cheats to win and Thunder still tries to kill Coyote, causing trouble. In one story, the goal is reached truthfully, and in the other, it is reached with lies and trickery. Next, in “How Stories Came to Earth”, the main character is a spider, who spins his webs of stories to the people so they can have the stories he obtained. In “Coyote Steals Fire”, the main character is a Coyote who fights the God, Thunder, so the animals can have fire. These stories go about giving their prizes to society in different ways, Anansi being the nonviolent way, and Coyote being the violent way. Finally, “How Stories Came to Earth”, is of African origin, while “Coyote Steals Fire”, is of Native American origin. This make both the stories different because the origins of the stories tell them differently than each other. Both these trickster tales have things that are different about each other that make them

In “The Black Cat”, the narrator starts the story out by saying that basically he is not insane, but he will be put to death. In the beginning paragraph of “The Tell-Tale Heart”, he then also explains that he is not crazy either. As you can see here, these introductions are very similar, due to the fact that they both state that they are not crazy, yet both narrators kill something, which is another similarity in these stories. The second paragraph of the two stories, they start to explain that they love something and are so fond of it. For instance, in “the Black Cat” that narrator states that he loves animals. In “The Tell-Tale Heart” this narrator states that he loves the old man. This right here shows that these two were had affection towards something, though they are different.

Trickster tales enact in a tremendous amount of the history in most cultures, Africa being the most relevant. Therefore the trickster tales passed down in varied cultures throughout generations have much value. Some of the supplementary famous tales being How Stories came to Earth, Coyote Steals Fire, and Master Cat. Throughout this time analyzing these stories, it has helped define a better judgement of what a trickster in a trickster tale actually represents. Nevertheless, in the three tales all of the protagonists are non-human, but present themselves as being capable of human abilities and characteristics. By way of example a trait represented in copious amounts of trickster tales is that of Gods, Spirits, and the Supernatural. An

In the trickster tale “Coyote Steals Fire” and “MasterCat” the similarities they shared were they all had to accomplish their goals. In “Coyote Steals Fire” his goal was to beat Thunder god in a gambling game for fire. In “Master Cat” the cat wanted to steal the king’s wealth from him to help Miller’s son to be wealthy or look wealthy. “Coyote Steals Fire” was a coyote that wanted fire. “Master Cat” was a cat who wanted to be like no other cat he wanted wealth. “Coyote Steals Fire” uses anthropomorphism case he talks, walks, dresses himself, and gambles. “Master Cat” he walks on hind legs, talks, and he’s cunning. “Coyote Steals

In both stories they both use anthropomorphism. Anthropomorphism is when animals perform animal characteristics. In the two stories, the protagonists are both animals. One is a cat and the other is a coyote. Both characters achieved their goals. The cat and the coyote are both cunning, meaning clever. The master cat tricked the ogre into turning into a mouse so the cat could eat him. And the coyote cheated in the game dice and won. On the rock he put his

The first difference in the two stories are the type of tricksters. In “How Stories Came to Earth” it’s a spider that is the trickster. In “Coyote Steals Fire” it’s a coyote that is the trickster. The second difference is that they both achieved their goals differently. Anansi captured a python, leopard, hornets, and a fairy to get the stories. Coyote on the other hand cheated at a game of dice with the thunder god to get the fire. The finale difference is that males and females were portrayed differently. In “How Stories Came to Earth” females were equal to men because Anansi’s wife contributed to Anansi getting the stories. In “Coyote Steals Fire” males were viewed higher than females, because the male beaver teeth were two points and the female woodchuck teeth were only one point in the game of dice that Coyote and the thunder god

The first comparison is In both of the stories the Rat or Mouse bribed the Cat that there was fish. He said come on come with me there will be fish. In both of the stories the Cat got mad at the Rat or Mouse. The Cat got mad because he was pushed into water and he was bred for fish to go into the water and there wasn't any fish. Another Comparison is that in both of the stories the Cat was afraid of water. The only way that Rat got him to go is because he bribed him. In both of the stories they have to cross a wide river or the widest part of the river. And the cat os afraid of the water and doesn't want to cross it. The last comparison is that in both the stories The Cat and Rat started off as friends and then at the end of both of the stores they ended up being enemies and not liking each other. These are just a few similarities of the two

A coyote and also a cat in these two stories. Another one is they all achieved their goals. The coyote got his fire that he wanted and the Cat got the Miller son and himself wealth.

In both, it’s told how the two animals, Mouse (or Rat) and Cat started off as best friends. They also included crossing an extraordinary wide river. Another comparison I noticed is that the Cat had gotten furious in each story, as well as Rat/Mouse being very selfish. The legends

Both stories begin with a cat and a rodent who were best friends until one event, where they’d become enemies. Simultaneously, these rodents were cunning tricksters and bribed the cat with fish to get what they wanted. The rodents were very sneaky as well, but they both just barely escaped the cat’s wrath. Although their mode of transportation may have been different, the duo had to cross a wide river to get where they wanted to go. Both stories ended with the cat getting angry and declaring his hatred for the rodent.

Overall both narratives depicted some of the trials and conflicts women endure and go through in order to take good care of their
