- Position: Researcher (L-LIN/05 – Spanish Literature)
- Office: Room 127

Her academic journey began with contract teaching roles at Sapienza University of Rome, followed by a permanent researcher position at the University of Catania since 2002, with a disciplinary shift from Spanish Language (L-LIN/07) to Spanish Literature (L-LIN/05) in 2007.
Her research focuses on women's writing (modern and contemporary), Spanish protofeminism, Spanish identity imaginaries, and 17th-century Spanish pornotopias. Earlier work was rooted in cultural and postcolonial studies. These themes reflect a deep engagement with gender, identity, and literary representation in Hispanic cultures.
Although the system indicates a large number of publications, no specific titles are listed in the provided text, making it impossible to analyze publication trends. However, her research trajectory suggests a strong thematic coherence in feminist and identity-based literary analysis.
Anita FABIANI actively supervises undergraduate and master’s theses in Spanish Literature. Students must contact her in person during office hours to request thesis supervision. She emphasizes strong textual analysis skills, genuine interest in Hispanic topics, and flexibility in timelines. Thesis topics she has guided include studies on Rosalía de Castro, Clara Campoamor, María Martínez Sierra, and 18th–19th century Spanish cultural figures. She provides detailed editorial guidelines for thesis formatting, bibliography, and structure, which students are required to follow strictly.
She is currently on a full academic leave for research, during which students are referred to Dr. Daniela Santonocito for matters concerning the course "Spanish Literature from the 'novatores' to the historical avant-gardes."
