Ymchwil

My fields of expertise are Victorian and especially fin-de-siècle literature, in particular the New Woman and the Anglo-Irish writer George Moore, and contemporary neo-Victorianism. More generally I have research interests in Victorian to 21st-century women's writing and gender discourse.

My main current project involves completing a monograph on George Moore (with Mark Llewellyn).

Postdoctoral mentoring

I am keen to work with postdoctoral scholars interested in my fields, and have previously mentored two externally funded projects (on motoring in turn-of-the-century women's writing, funded by the SSHRCC, and on the New Woman and religion, funded by three AHRC/BA/ESRC Visiting Fellowships).

Conference organisation

I have (co)organised four international conferences, at Manchester (The New Woman in the International Periodical Press™, 2000), Swansea (Hystorical Fictions: Women, History, Authorship™, 2003), and at Hull (George Moore and his Contemporaries,™ 5-6 September 2008, sponsored by the British Academy and the Department of Foreign Affairs, Republic of Ireland ˜and Neo-Victorian Art and Aestheticism,™ 26 March 2011, subsidised by BAVS). 

In addition I have convened symposia and smaller conferences, at the University of Wales Conference Centre in Gregynog (˜Gendering the Subject,™ 2004) and for the NCUP in 2006, 2008 and 2009 (˜RAE2008: The Mentoring and Support of Early Career Researchers, Counting on Excellence: Bibliometrics and the Future of Research Funding and ˜Languages and Internationalisation: Globalisation and the 21st-century University). 

In 2016, I will be responsible for overseeing the organisation of the annual BAVS (British Association for Victorian Studies) conference, which will take place in Cardiff. I maintain an international Call for Papers mailing list on ˜Women and Gender™. To be added to the list, email me.

Research grants

I have held research grants from the AHRC (under the Collaborative Doctoral Training scheme and twice the Research Leave scheme), the ESRC in conjunction with the AHRC and British Academy (AHRC/BA/ESRC Visiting Fellowship scheme), and the British Academy (twice under the AHRC/BA/ESRC Visiting Fellowship scheme; Visiting Professorship scheme; Conference Grant scheme; Overseas Conference scheme) and BAVS (British Association for Victorian Studies, conference grant).

Addysgu

I contribute to the first-year module on 'The Novel'™ and convene and teach '˜Victorian Fiction'™ (Year 2) and '˜Gender and Monstrosity: Late-Victorian to Neo-Victorian'™ (Year 3). At postgraduate level I offer a module on '˜Neo-Victorian Metatextualities'™ (MA in English Literature).

Bywgraffiad

I was appointed in Cardiff in 2012, having previously held chairs at the Universities of Hull and Swansea and lectureships at Manchester Metropolitan and Bradford Universities. Born and educated in Germany, I came to the UK originally on a fixed-term instructorship at the University of Leeds, where I taught German while undertaking my doctoral studies in English Literature for the University of Tübingen. 

During this time I also worked in Adult and Further Education and for the WEA. Prior to that, while reading for my degree in English and French Language and Literature at Tübingen, I spent six months studying at what was then University College Cardiff: an inspiring experience which determined my later decision to return to the UK. I am delighted to be back in Cardiff.
