Her research interests span archives, critical theory, and artistic-literary theories, with a focus on settler-colonial studies and postcolonial theory. Recent publications analyze historical documents like the Canada Sunday School Union reports (1843–1876) and kinship patterns in early Canadian juvenile literature. These works highlight intersections between literary analysis, historical transparency, and colonial dynamics.
Publications emphasize interdisciplinary approaches, combining archival research with digital humanities methods to explore cultural and religious histories. Kean’s work contributes to broader conversations about colonialism, childhood, and literary representation in Canadian contexts.
