Sneja Marina Gunew (15 December 1946 – 8 January 2024), FRSC, was an Australian-Canadian literary theorist whose focus lay on feminism, postcolonial studies and multiculturalism. She taught in England, Australia, and Canada. From 1995 to her retirement in 2014 she was Professor of English and Director of the Centre for Women's and Gender Studies at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver. Her scholarly research into multicultural (non-Anglo-Celtic) writers in Australia and Canada, particularly women writers, as well as her engagement with multicultural policy-making in Australia, brought these groups to attention in both countries.
