She is currently writing a book tentatively entitled Shakespeare’s Paideia: Five Tragedies as Rhetorical Handbooks and a textbook called The Critical Reader. She has completed a book titled Figuring style: The Legacy of Renaissance Rhetoric. She has articles published on Renaissance rhetoric, Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus, and the classical rhetorical curriculum.
