Her most important publications in these fields include C. Lucili Reliquiarum concordantiae (1998) and Colloquial and Literary Latin (co-edited with Eleanor Dickey); as of 2019, she is working on a new edition and the first English-language commentary of Lucilius' satires and on a Loeb Classical Library collection of fragmentary satire, political invective and popular verse.
