George P. Hansen, The Trickster and the Paranormal

[hurmanetar]

George P. Hansen's book, The Trickster and the Paranormal changed my life. It's not often I say that. I can only find a couple interviews of him on the interwebs and would LOVE to hear him on your show. I think Gordon White mentioned him in a recent podcast. His book is densely fact filled and I kind of breezed through the names and dates to get the gestalt ideas which are much more important.

Thanks to his book, I have been able to tie together so many seemingly unrelated concepts under the Trickster archetype or constellation.

Additionally, his book was my introduction to literary deconstruction, patternism, liminality, boundaries/spaces, logos/abyss, which I believe are hugely important to our understanding of every level of reality from the micro to macrocosm. I expounded on some ideas born out from this new lens <a href="https://simcah.wordpress.com/2015/11/06/logos-abyss-and-spirit/" target="_blank">here</a>.

Anyway, hope you can get Hansen on.

Thanks for the welcome. I think I must have heard of Tom Campbell before. I'm checking out a YouTube of him now. Sounds like his big TOE would be a good read. Alex... Jones or Tsakiris? Sorry that one went over my head :-/
