Culture Commodifying Human in Henry James' The Spoils of Poynton
(2016) Bhatt, Jagadeesh; Ram Chandra Paudel
This research looks into Henry James’s The Spoils of Poynton from the perspective of Neo Marxism. The late capitalism is essential to address the exploitation of capitalism as mode of oppression is also changed in the society. Human emotion and sacred social institutions like marriage are commodified in the era of late capitalism. Economic concern and other pragmatic consideration have become so pressing and overpowering that people are almost bound to forget sanctity of human feelings and sentiments. Both Owen and Mona treat marriage as commodity which can be trade and transacted with money. They count it in monetary terms. It is just a tool to make money and create solid financial prospect in their lives. In the novel Mona is dismissive of her mother-in-law's aesthetic pursuit and passion. Her mother in law had spent lots of her energy and youths to collect different types of artifacts and artworks. Her dedication to artistic pursuit and passion is memorable. But her daughter in law is highly dismissive of her dedication to art, and aesthetics. Mona sees only the utility in the objects of aesthetic works. She goes to the extent of burning Mrs. Gereth's souvenirs assuming that they have no practical and pragmatic worth. The commodified interest of both Owen and Mona match. So they live. Before they decide to live together, they had made up their mind to avoid sexual entanglement. But as their nuptial life continues, they violate all such terms and conditions.
