I am happy with the secondary sources that I found. I think that I can use a wide range of things that will help boost what I have to say and they vary from articles more about trauma all the way to Shakespeare writing about sexuality. I was also able to find the Judith Butler article I wanted to reference which I am very happy about. I will definitely talk about how Rosalind and Viola are performing gender and how they do so. I also built my definition of trauma for the paper, so I know that I can take the paper in the direction I want to.
I wish I found at least one paper talking about the measures these characters take to survive in their situations, but I think I can use what I have to infer those sorts of things. I also wish that I was able to find more about Twelfth Night as I did for As You Like It. I know that some of the articles can be used for both plays, but it seems like my secondary sources tend to lean more about AYLI. Not a huge issue, but I will have to keep that in mind when I write my paper.
