Danielle’s research explores intersections of 17th-18th century British literature, satire, critical humour studies, gender & sexuality, and pedagogy. Her work analyzes how private spaces like closets shaped interpersonal relationships and how humor intersects with human rights and legal discourse. She is currently working on a SSHRC-funded project, Ward v. Quebec: A Case for Literary-Critical Humour Studies (2024-2026), and an upcoming book Flayed: How to Talk about Jokes without Hurting Anyone.
Danielle’s publications span topics like closet rhetoric in 18th century literature, affect theory in autobiographical writing, and feminist approaches to humor. Her recent projects integrate AI and humor studies, reflecting her interdisciplinary methodology. She welcomes doctoral students interested in critical humour studies, satire, and gender studies.
