STRAUSS
All stories, Levi-Strauss concluded, work through oppositional arrangements – through the construction of characters or narrative incidents that clash or jar.
​
Moreover, stories and storytelling, in Levi-Strauss’ view, perform a vital social function: oppositional presentations are resolved to outline societal taboos and social expectations
"...a truly insightful book which addresses important changes in today’s media landscape"
