[1] Before her death, Brennan was Schmidt Distinguished Professor of the Humanities at Florida Atlantic University, where she founded a PhD program for Public Intellectuals.
While at Florida Atlantic University from 1998 to 2002, Brennan designed a PhD for Public Intellectuals, intended for training not only scholars but curators and archivists, organizers, and environmentalists.
Her posthumous The Transmission of Affect[9] engages physiological and psychosocial research that challenges the causal framework of sociobiology, with examples such as stress, psychological projection, the introjection of aggression, and the energizing and draining of social interactions.
In addition to these five books, Brennan edited two volumes: Between Feminism and Psychoanalysis[10] and, with co-editor Martin Jay, Vision in Context: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives on Sight.
[14] Her papers are housed in the John Hay Library at Brown University, part of the Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women's Feminist Theory Archive.
