Annelie Fitzgerald

Annelie Fitzgerald is a Lecturer in the Department of English at the Center for Anglophone Studies (CAS), University of Toulouse – Jean-Jaurès, where she has been teaching since September 2010. Her expertise lies in British Modernism, aesthetics, and contemporary Welsh literature in the English language.

Her research centers on British Modernism, with a particular focus on Wyndham Lewis and Vorticism, the intersection of literature and visual art, and modernist little magazines. She also explores themes of intersemioticity, autonomy in art, and gendered dynamics in modernist texts. Her scholarly work reflects a deep engagement with transdisciplinary approaches to literature and aesthetics.

The recent publications reveal a consistent thematic trajectory centered on Wyndham Lewis’s literary and artistic theories, his relationship to other modernist figures like Picasso, and the role of speed, gender, and eclecticism in modernist discourse. These works span journals such as Miranda and Fabula, indicating strong engagement with French and international academic communities in Anglophone studies.

Annelie Fitzgerald has contributed to academic life through organizing events such as the study day “(En)gendering Modernism: Women in Little Magazines (1909–39)” under the Gender Thursdays series at CAS. She has also co-translated a chapter from Nan Shepherd’s The Living Mountain, highlighting her interest in women’s voices and literary translation. While no formal advising or grant activities are listed, her research output and seminar involvement demonstrate active scholarly participation.

The Center for Anglophone Studies (CAS) hosts several research axes and seminars, including Gender Thursdays, Poetics, and Translation of minority voices, within which Fitzgerald is embedded. Her work aligns closely with research groups focusing on literary modernism, intermediality, and gender studies.
