摘要:This study shows feminine representation from a profound psychological study of the
character Fedra in Racine's dramatic play Fedra. In literary theory, gender issues have been of
great interest and have also experienced great development, particularly in the last decades.
This paper intends to contribute towards gender studies by showing the feminine
representation in dramatic plays based on a careful psychological examination of the female
protagonist. Results show that there are some feminine text markings as well as feminine
ambiguity traces which may be recognized and pointed out in the contraposition of feminine
and masculine through the psychological study of the character.
