She teaches literary studies across all levels from ancient literature to children's literature, supervises student essays, and serves as a VFU teacher while managing staffing responsibilities for teacher training programs.
She earned her doctorate from Uppsala University in 2002 with a thesis titled "Hospitaltidens lyrik" (Hospital Poetry), focusing on Gustaf Fröding's later poems through textual criticism and historical analysis.
Jonsson's research centers on children's literature, particularly books for girls and boys published by free church publishers, and textual criticism of Swedish literary figures including Selma Lagerlöf and the Fröding siblings. Her work integrates publishing history, gender studies, and literary analysis to explore cultural contexts and religious influences on Nordic literary heritage, with special attention to how societal norms shaped children's reading materials and author-editor relationships.
Her publications reveal a sustained focus on Swedish literary history through critical editions, manuscript analysis, and digital archives. She examines textual variants in works by Gustaf Fröding and Selma Lagerlöf, revealing insights into authorial processes and editorial decisions while bridging traditional philology with digital humanities to advance scholarly understanding of textual evolution and cultural transmission.
