In myths, legends, folktales and in literature as a whole, the ‘stranger’
is frequently ‘the one destined to replace’ the reigning power in a country or
locality. He stands for the possibility of unseen change, for the future made
present, or for mutation in general. Frazer tells us how Lityerses, a son of King
Midas, was wont to challenge people to a reaping match, and if he vanquished
them he used to thrash them; but one day he met with a stranger who, proving
himself to be a stronger reaper, slew him (21).
