《菲尼斯·芬恩》是特罗洛普的代表作“帕里赛小说系列”的第二部，它与小说系列的第四部《菲尼斯归来》合称为“菲尼斯小说”。特罗洛普在小说中塑造了一位带有政治色彩且具男性化特色的“双性同体”的女性形象劳拉太太。作者从性别视角切入，并以福柯的话语权力为理论基础，通过对劳拉由反抗---妥协---反抗三个阶段的分析，阐述了父权制社会的话语权力在她身上如何得以运作和实施，同时还可以看到在权力网络中被压抑的女性如何做出回应。这一人物的塑造不仅透出强烈的历史感，而且蕴含着特罗洛普对女性生存困境的深沉理性思考。“,”“Phineas novels”is composed of Phineas Finn ,the second novel of Palliser Series ,and its fourth one Phineas Redux ,written by Anthony Trollope ,one of the most representative British writ-ers of realism in 19th century .Based on the framework of Foucauldian theory on power -discourse sys-tem ,the disciplinary power of the social patriarchal discourse is implemented upon the heroine Mrs .
