Consolidaciones literarias y f铆lmicas en la Espa帽a de fin de siglo XIX y fin de milenio (Madrid: Fund amentos, 2016) and the special issue of the 聽Journal of Language and Sexuality on the theme of "Transnational Discourses of Peripheral Sexualities in the Hispanic World" (Vol. 5, no. 2: 2016). 聽Dr. Horswell has also published articles and book chapters on important literary figures such as Sor Juana In茅s de la Cruz, Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala and el Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, Latin American cinema and the Baroque in the Americas, including two recent volumes, one co-edited with 聽Luis Duno-Gottberg, Sumergido-Submerged: Alternative Cuban Cinema (Houston: Literal Publishing, 2013) and Baroque Projections: Images and Texts in Dialogue with the Early Modern World , co-edited with Frederic Conrod.

As a scholar, Dr. Hinshaw specializes in Composition and Rhetoric, with a focus in community-based literacy practices and prison writing. Her work on writing and reading behind bars has appeared in Reflections, Community Literacy Journal, Feminist Formations, and most recently in the edited collection Community Listening: Stories, Hauntings, Possibilities (2025). Her recent research has increasingly focused on new approaches to teaching and learning in the "AI Turn," developing new ways of understanding creativity and originality that account for the changing conditions of how texts are created, circulated, and read. Her current research explores pedagogical innovation in response to the 鈥淎I Turn,鈥� examining how emerging technologies are reshaping our understandings of creativity, originality, and the ways texts are composed, circulated and interpreted.
