 | The Story of Lynx by Catherine Tihanyi, Claude Levi-Strauss
Levi-Strauss`s most accessible examination of the rich mythology of Native America centers on a myth of the Nez Perce about the relationship of Coyote and Wild Cat, and its many variations in both North and South America. The meaning and use of twinness is central to the analysis, and the concept of dual organization exemplified in the tales is one of nonequivalence: everything has an opposite or other, with which it coexist in unstable tension. Levi-Strauss contrasts European ideas of twinness which stress the essential sameness of the twins. He argues that this fundamental cultural difference lay behind the fatal clash of European and Native American peoples. The Story of Lynx clarifies many of the issues that have been at the heart of Levi-Strauss`s work for decades and marks the most explicit connection of history and the structuralist method anywhere in his work.
