more on suspense and emotional tension. Her stories create fear and uncertainty,
and the reader feels the danger along with the characters. Second, the characters in
their novels are different.
Christie often uses professional detectives like Hercule Poirot. These characters
are intelligent and calm. They solve crimes using logic and observation. Rinehart, on
the other hand, often uses ordinary people as main characters. These characters are
not experts, and they often feel fear and confusion. Third, the narrative style is
different. Christie uses a clear and simple style. Her stories are easy to read, but the
mystery is complex. Rinehart uses a more emotional style. She often uses first-person
narration, which allows the reader to experience the story directly. Another important
result is the role of setting. Christie’s stories often take place in controlled
environments, such as a train or a house. This helps create a closed system where the
mystery can be solved logically. Rinehart’s stories often take place in larger or more
open settings, which creates more uncertainty. In conclusion, the results show that
while both authors belong to the same genre, their writing styles and approaches are
different. These differences reflect the cultural and literary traditions of Britain and
America.
DISCUSSION
The findings of this study highlight the importance of cultural context in
understanding detective fiction. Agatha Christie clearly represents the British
tradition, which emphasizes order, logic, and structured problem-solving. Her stories
are often carefully constructed, with events unfolding in a way that allows both the
detective and the reader to solve the mystery using reason and observation. This
approach reflects the values of British society during the early to mid-twentieth
century, where logic, social order, and moral clarity were highly appreciated. In
Christie’s novels, crimes usually take place in controlled environments, such as
country houses, trains, or small villages. These settings create a sense of containment
that allows the detective to carefully examine the evidence and draw logical
conclusions. The structured nature of Christie’s plots demonstrates her skill in
crafting puzzles that challenge the reader’s intelligence, while her writing style
remains clear and accessible, ensuring that the stories are enjoyable to a wide
audience. Mary Roberts Rinehart, on the other hand, represents the American
tradition of detective fiction, which often focuses more on action, suspense, and
emotional engagement. Her stories frequently include danger, fear, and uncertainty,
creating a heightened sense of tension for the reader. Rinehart’s narrative style often
employs the first-person perspective, particularly through the “had-I-but-known”
technique, where the narrator reflects on past events with regret or fear. This style
immerses the reader directly into the experiences of the characters, emphasizing
their emotional responses to unfolding events. In contrast to Christie’s orderly and
logical approach, Rinehart’s stories are more flexible and dynamic, often involving
ordinary characters who are unexpectedly placed in dangerous situations. This
reflects the more dynamic and changing nature of American society during her time,
where unpredictability and personal initiative were valued.
Another significant aspect of this study is the role of gender in the development
of detective fiction. Both Christie and Rinehart were successful female writers in a
field that was largely dominated by men. Their success demonstrates that women 429
