"Shapeshifters: A Brief History from Antiquity to Modern Times"

Award-winning author John Kachuba will speak about the myths, magic, and meaning surrounding shapeshifters—creatures that capture our imagination, appealing to our animal nature, our “dark side,” our desire to break free of the bonds of society and proper behavior. Real or imaginary, shapeshifters lurk deep in our psyches and remain formidable cultural icons.
