  Prof. Sumeli Weinberg has specialized in modern Italian literature and especially in feminist studies. She has published extensively on the works of Dacia Maraini and Cesare Pavese, and has also given attention to the writings of Erminia Dell'Oro and Aldo Nove. Her pioneering monograph on the works of Dacia Maraini (University of South Africa, 1993) provided a full overview of Maraini's output in drama, fiction and poetry. To date she has produced a substantial corpus of critical writing. Several essays on Maraini and Pavese focus on myth and feminist readings. Her recent work has focused on the crisis in education both globally and in South Africa, specifically with regard to the corporatization of the university and the changing condition of the professoriate.
