In her most recent publications, she interrogates issues of gender in works by Spanish authors such as Cristina Fernández Cubas (1945- ). She has also published numerous studies on Rosalia de Castro including Between the Maternal Aegis and the Abyss: Woman as Symbol in the Poetry of Rosalia de Castro (Madison, NJ: Fairleigh Dickinson UP, 2002). At Lafayette, Geoffrion-Vinci teaches courses on Spanish language, Peninsular literature and civilization from the eighteenth century to the present and on women writers of Spain and Latin America.
