Various forms of discipline played significant roles during the Victorian era, yet, as with many aspects of Victorian society, discipline and disciplinary systems were still viewed as being separated between the public and private spheres. However, according to Michel Foucault's theories from Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison (1975) and Psychiatric Power: Lectures at the College De France, 1973-1974, discipline and disciplinary systems are not separate, but are entwined and intrinsically linked to power, particularly power over the body. Using Foucault's theories as a lens, this thesis examines the use of disciplinary systems and their effects on Victorian heroines who are non-docile bodies in three works of fiction: Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South (1854) and "The Poor Clare&" (1856) and Sheridan Le Fanu's The Rose and the Key (1871). In these works, the heroines - Margaret Hale in North and South, Bridget Fitzgerald in "The Poor Clare," and Maud Vernon in The Rose and the Key all encounter disciplinary systems that are controlled by sovereigns and use surveillance to ensure the people in the disciplinary systems remain docile bodies. Because the heroines are non-docile bodies, they do not conform to the expectations placed upon them by society or the disciplinary system and are each punished for their transgressions. Even so, each heroine reacts differently to the disciplinary systems they find themselves in, and some heroines work to subvert those systems. Margaret Hale is punished within the disciplinary system of Milton because she puts her body and actions on display multiple times, but she manages to subvert her discipline and remain a non-docile body. In contrast, Maud Vernon's non-docile body can withstand the disciplinary system of her family's country house, Roydon, but she becomes a docile body after she is sent to the disciplinary system of the private asylum, Glarewoods. Finally, Bridget Fitzgerald uses her power as a non-docile body and sovereign to create a non-docile double to punish her enemy, but her plan backfires when the double creates its own disciplinary system and forces Bridget and her granddaughter Lucy to become docile bodies.
