Human Destiny and Its Socio-Psychological Interpretation In Detective Works

Abstract

This comparative analytical article explores the nature of evil and the struggle against it as depicted in Agatha Christie’s detective novel "The Big Four" and Said Ahmad’s socio-psychological work "Jimjitlik" (Silence). It contrasts the rational, intellectual approach of the detective genre in Western literature (Poirot’s fight to restore logical order) with the spiritual portrait of the heroes in Eastern prose, who seek inner purification through moral and conscientious suffering. Furthermore, it reveals the fundamental differences in the philosophical interpretations of human destiny, the concept of justice, and heroism across these two cultural contexts.
