KARMİK ADALET BİÇİMİNDE TOPLUMUN PARÇALANMIŞ AYNASI: AGATHA CHRISTIE'NİN AND THEN THERE WERE NONE ESERİ
Edebiyat, üretildiği toplumların sosyal yapılarını, kültürel normlarını ve güç dinamiklerini yansıtır ve yorumlar; bu da sosyoloji ve edebiyatı birçok farklı şekilde kesişen iki alan haline getirir. Edebiyat çalışmaları, günümüzün sosyal ve kültürel sorunlarına dair aydınlatıcı analizler sunmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, edebiyat ve toplum arasındaki karmaşık ve dinamik bağlantıları anlamak için bir çerçeve edebiyat sosyolojisi tarafından sağlanır. Edebi eserlerin sosyal ve kültürel gerçekliği hem nasıl yansıttığını hem de nasıl şekillendirdiğini fark ederek, etrafımızdaki dünyayı analiz etmek ve eleştirmek için edebiyatın nasıl kullanılabileceğini daha iyi kavrayabiliriz. Polisiye romanlar genellikle çok çeşitli sosyolojik konulara değinir ve yazıldıkları toplumların değerlerini, endişelerini ve kaygılarını yansıtan önemli bir türdür. Toplumsal meseleleri ve karmik adaleti en iyi yansıtan polisiye romanlardan biri, Agatha Christie'nin en popüler ve kalıcı romanlarından biri olan And Then There Were None'dır. Adalet, suçluluk, sınıfçılık, ırkçılık, önyargı, kefaret ve psikolojik travma gibi toplumu etkileyen konuları ele alarak toplumun nasıl yozlaştığını gözler önüne serer.

THE SHATTERED MIRROR OF SOCIETY IN THE FORM OF KARMIC JUSTICE: AGATHA CHRISTIE'S AND THEN THERE WERE NONE
Literature reflects and interprets the social structures, cultural norms, and power dynamics of the societies in which it is produced, making sociology and literature two fields that cross in many different ways. Studies of literature provide insightful analysis of contemporary social and cultural challenges. Nevertheless, the sociology of literature provides a framework for comprehending the intricate and dynamic connections between literature and society. We can better grasp how literary works can be utilized to analyze and critique the world around us by recognizing how they both reflect and shape social and cultural reality. Detective fiction often touches on a wide range of sociological issues and is an important genre that reflects the values, concerns, and anxieties of the societies in which they are written. One of the crime novels that best reflects social issues and karmic justice is And Then There Were None, one of Agatha Christie's most popular and enduring novels. It deals with issues that affect society such as justice, guilt, classism, racism, prejudice, redemption, and psychological trauma, revealing how society has degenerated.
