• Henry James goes back to writing novels after the miserable failure of his drama Guy Domville (1895): he devoted himself in writing dramas during 1890.95. His letters and notebook entries show his decision to make the most of his theatrical experiences in his future novels. The Spoils of Poynton (1896) is the first novel he wrote based on `the divine principle of scenario'. In his notebook he writes down his ideas in detail, unusual for him, seven times. Therefore, this paper first examines his notebook entries in detail to see what his ideas of his new method are, and then it will analyze the text focusing on the way of his ideas of `scenic method' being enacted in the novel. It intends to clarify how the new method, which is composed of scenes and narrative description, is useful in representing the characters' inner movement, by which his novel becomes more dramatic.
