Abstract. Trickster stories are well-known among scientists. Relying on non-traditional methodological approaches, the author tries to identify typical features of tricksters’ images and to reveal their functions in newly settled lands. The study is conducted by the material of the Ob-Ugric folklore. Scientific originality of the paper involves justifying efficiency of new interdisciplinary approaches and non-traditional methodological models when analysing tricksters’ behaviour. The research findings are as follows: the author reveals specificity of traditional culture bearers’ motivations in newly settled lands.
