Archetype North American Literature Folklore The trickster is a figure that joins a model that has appeared in North American fictional works from its beginnings to contemporary times and has remarkable similarities with the Spanish picaro, with the Brazilian trickster, with the French upstart, with the German smartass, among others. Taking into account its importance for the study of anti-heroic figures, section 2 of Pieter Conradie's master's thesis is translated into Portuguese, in which he defines this figure and makes important observations about its constitution and evolution throughout its existence in the fictional texts. In the referred part, the author provides its definition and illustrates its relevance to North American natives and it extends to the present day, based on the studies by Radin (1972) and Jung (1969). The trickster is considered as a mythological entity originating from the indigenous tribe located in Nebraska, Winnebago, and which ended up establishing itself as a representation of the smart guy, who does everything to get along and get away from conflicting situations. Initially, he was a folkloric figure who ended up entering the literary field and there he remains as a wandering, ambitious, selfish being, who despises work and whose only intention is survival, through fraud and deceit to third parties, permeated by humor, and always emphasizing his cleverness and agility in the actions he experiences in the fictions of the past and also in those of the present. O trickster é uma figura que se filia a um modelo que tem aparecido nas obras ficcionais norte-americanas desde os seus primórdios até a contemporaneidade e guarda notáveis semelhanças com o pícaro espanhol, com o malandro brasileiro, com o arrivista francês, com o espertalhão alemão, dentre outros. Levando-se em consideração a sua importância para o estudo de figuras anti-heroicas, se traduz para o português a seção 2 da dissertação de mestrado de Pieter Conradie, na qual ele define essa figura e tece observações importantes a respeito de sua constituição e sua evolução ao longo de sua existência no âmbito ficcional. Na parte referida, o autor fornece a sua definição e ilustra sua relevância para os nativos norte-americanos e que se estende até os dias de hoje, a partir dos estudos de Radin (1972) e Jung (1969). O trickster é considerado um ente mitológico originário da tribo indígena localizada no Nebrasca, Winnebago, e que acabou por se firmar como uma representação do sujeito esperto, que tudo faz para se dar bem e se safar de situações conflituosas. Inicialmente, ele era uma figura folclórica que acabou adentrando o âmbito literário e aí se mantem como um ser errante, ambicioso, egoísta, que menospreza o trabalho e cujo único intento é a sobrevivência, por meio de burlas e enganos a terceiros, permeadas pelo humor e ressaltando sempre a sua esperteza e agilidade nas ações que vivencia nas ficções do passado e também naquelas da atualidade.
