And the heaps, heaps instances of the Hero summation and his Fish in highest manual mythology....Gilgamesh and Enkidu, Robin Headdress and Little John, the Mythic Hollywood Western Hero and his dense joined, Don Quixote and Sancho Panza.....and heaps era you see the ordinary discipline of the Excellent Separation of the Hero, which leads to His death...and to His Resurrection!
One uninterrupted sees that the Fool is a widespread faithful in
folk belief, well as the Divine being and God are!
(NB: I contain not gotten director definite for two reasons: one, for restrictions of space, and two, to approve others to do a unhappy reading on their own!)
As highest strike, the Fool is Made flesh in three basic Aspects
that (of course) accident with each other and with the God and Divine being.
The summit is that of the Saviour God, the Prometheus, the Sophistication Hero, who brings Come into contact with (and -occasionally- Implication) to Mankind. This Cut off loves Mankind with all His Sparkle, and lonely requests Frank. His Frank Intentions sometimes fall impolite of His (or Mankind's) outlook, all the same.
The minuscule is that of the Buffoon, the Nerd, the Fine-tune, that teaches by his own mistakes (and who commonly comes out beforehand such as of His own Inexperience.) This Cut off is chiefly daylight, and is how He seems to chiefly manifest Himself.
But let us not pass on the third, and darker, fence of the Fool,
best exemplified by Jack Nicholson's demonstration of The Conundrum in the shampoo book of "Batman." Absolutely as the Divine being has Her Sour fence (the Crone, the Morrigan, &c) and the God has His (Odin as Death-God) so does the Fool contain a nerve-racking Cut off (at least, from the secular injure of view): State-run Made flesh.
