Gladys Rosaleen Turquet-Milnes (21 April 1887[1][2] – 17 January 1977) was a British academic and author. She was Professor of French Language and Literature at Bedford College, University of London, from 1934–52, having been Head of the French Department at Westfield College from 1916–34.[3][4]

Her obituary in The Times described her as "a remarkably effective teacher, who loved the literature she taught but not uncritically, and communicated her zest and her assessments with vitality and style".[3] She published several scholarly books on French and Belgian writers, some of which have been reprinted in the 2010s, and a book of poems and an autobiographical work.

Turquet-Milnes was born in Wandsworth, Surrey,[5] the daughter of Dr Alfred and Helena Emily Milnes. Her husband, André Turquet (1869-1940), ran Scoones' training school for the diplomatic service and was appointed an honorary CBE in 1936 for "his work in the services of Franco-British relations"; he predeceased her.[6] Her son Dr Pierre Turquet (1913-1975), a psychiatrist and Olympic fencer, died in a traffic accident.[7] She died in Sussex aged 89 and was survived by her daughter-in-law, three grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.[3][4]

Her death notice in The Times uses the name "Gladys Mary Turquet", although she appears to have published as "Gladys Rosaleen Turquet-Milnes".[8]
