Abstract

The suppression and the melancholy under which women generally suffer are dual. In most environments and epochs of history, women face oppression in two spheres: the public sphere, which is related to the societal environment in which she lives -capital or colonial-and the private sphere, mainly associated with the tyranny inside their houses. Maupassant's The Diamond Necklace is filled with explicit and implicit references to women's problems in society and in their homes. The study, "Latitudes of Capitalist Exploitation and Patriarchal Subjugation: Female Disenfranchisement in Maupassant's The Diamond Necklace, A Marxist Feminist Study”. It foregrounds the atrocity of the conditions in which women live. 
Moreover, the paper examines the causes that drastically subjugate women and their outcomes. It claims that women receive oppression from two tremendous realms; additionally, they are marginalised within a particular frame. The option for women is taken; they are characters, and their role is chosen. Hence, the problem of the study is how women’s retardation might be uprooted from society and their melancholy overwhelmed. They can neither express their inner feelings nor overthrow their dual foes. Thus, their world is devoid of any pleasant incidents; it is but a monotonous pain.
