from Foreword

By verbal and nonverbal means of classification we impose upon ourselves innumerable constraints and boundaries to keep chaos at bay, but often at the cost of failing to make discoveries and inventions: that is to say, not all instances of subversion of the normative are deviant and criminous. Yet in order to live, to breathe and to generate novelty, human beings have had to create-by structural means-spaces and times in the calendar or, in the cultural cycles of their most cherished groups which cannot be captured in the classificatory nets of their quotidian, routinized spheres of action. These liminal areas of time and space - rituals, carnivals, dramas, and latterly films—are open to the play of thought, feelings, and will; in them are generated new models, often fantastic, some of which may have sufficient power and plausibility to replace eventually the force-backed political and jural models that control the cen­ters of a society's ongoing life.
