Her doctoral dissertation, which was entitled ‘The Role of the Reader in Oscar Wilde’s Narrative and Dramatic Works’, constituted a critical approach to Oscar Wilde's creative writings from the hypothesis that they called upon the active participation of the reader in the construction of their meaning. It explored the literary strategies which Wilde employs to impel the reader to participate actively in the construction of the meaning of his narrative and dramatic works and cast light upon the social criticism which is derived from them.
