This paper aims at exploring Henry James’s Washington Square. The focus is given to the depiction of a woman who is sacrificed by men who rule the American society of 1860’s. During the years of 1830s and 1840s, despite the remarkable accumulation of wealth and the progress of civilization, women were alienated from social development. The protagonist of Washington Square, Catherine Sloper is described as a woman who is governed by her father, Dr. Sloper who has authoritative, suppressive temper and big expectation. She is also sacrificed by Morris Townsend’s deception who tries to take advantage of her property. Catherine establishes her identity through hardships which her father and her sweetheart make for her. Her faith in honesty makes her dignified in the surroundings of hypocritical men and the dignity is gradually reinforced by her increasing self-respect. (Jeonju University)
