Besides this monograph now in press, her publications include “Revelations of Character”: Ethos, Rhetoric and Moral Philosophy in Montaigne (Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2007), a volume she co-edited with Valerie Dionne, and a dozen of articles and book chapters. She has published on the poetry of Marot, Peletier, Du Bellay, Ronsard, La Taille, Vian, Cretin and Goudezki, and the prose of Rabelais and Montaigne. She is currently at work on a book-length project analyzing the works of Jean de la Taille around the notion of drama as a critical tool useful to confront the problem of poetry and praxis, politics and action.
