More Than Just A Myth: How Shapeshifter Rhetoric Relates To Esl Students 2019, Amber Kent

The academic analysis surrounding the shapeshifter, or shapeshifter mythologies has, so far, been related to modern issues of violence, militarization, feminism, gender studies, or studies simply focusing on the compilation of shapeshifter myths themselves.

She uses her sources overall to support the claims and observations that she is bringing to her own writing, while she is talking about having learned that writing skill.
