1. Människooffer i järnålderns mossar : En analys av mänskliga kvarlevor från nordiska våtmarker

2. Bog Bodies in a Macro Perspective. A Spatial Study of Early Iron Age Scanian Bog Skeletons and Their Cultural Roles as Seen Through the Liminality Perspective
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/ArkeologiSammanfattning : This thesis was written with the aims to better understand the spatial relation between the Scanian iron Age bog bodies and the archaeological remains within the surrounding landscape, which in turn would lead to a new theory of understanding the cultural and social aspects of the bog body phenomenon, specifically by applying the liminality perspective.

5. Misogyny in the Marshlands : female Characterization in Seamus Heaney’s “Bog Queen” and “Punishment”
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan Kristianstad/Fakulteten för lärarutbildningSammanfattning : This essay argues that the depiction of women in Seamus Heaney’s poems “Bog Queen” and “Punishment” results from the male gaze in three ways: the narrative viewpoint, stereotypical characterization, and the objectification of the female body. The following essay analyses the poems through an ecofeminist perspective that enables examination of the female characters as personifications of nature – “Bog Queen” as Mother Earth and the victim of “Punishment” as Nerthus, the fertility goddess.
