3. Litteratursamtal i kontaktzonen : Praktik, identitet och språk i en teckenspråkig bokcirkel
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ABMSammanfattning : The purpose of this master’s thesis was to study literacy practices in a reading group of nine women discussing fiction in Swedish sign language.

5. Frankenstein, or the Voice of Chaos - A Psychoanalytical Reading of Mary Shelley's Journey Into the Subconscious of a Gifted Mind
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för språk och litteraturerSammanfattning : The aim of this essay is to trace "Frankenstein" back to its origin in an attempt to revisit the creative "chaos" behind Shelley's gothic horror story, in order to unveil a hitherto undiscovered latent meaning that lurks behind the narrative structure. By subjecting Shelley's "Frankenstein" to a psychoanalysis that draws on Freud in focusing on the "dream" as wish fulfillment, while showing how a formalist approach can be a part of psychoanalysis by the introduction of Maslowian theory, along with the incorporation of a proposed cognitive disposition of the implied author into the analysis - this essay, in a sense, seeks not only to offer an original reading of Mary Shelley's "hideous progeny", but also to revive the (in the wake of New Criticism) somewhat forgotten author herself.
