Abstract (2. Language): 
The aim of this article is to examine Arundhati Roy’s “The God of Small Things” and Mala Sen’s “India’s Bandit Queen” in terms of developing an understanding about the evolution of caste system in India and the role of British influence throughout this evolution process. First of all, an overview of the caste system in India is presented. Roy’s “The God of Small Things” and Sen’s work, in other words, the biography of Phoolan Devi are implemented to illustrate the instances of caste system in India. An undeniable contradiction emerges in behavioural norms due to the different expectancies from the present system. The changing behaviours of the characters against the traditional caste system which lead to a certain revolt, are associated with the role of the British influence in the article. The outcome of British influence for individuals in Indian society is described based on Phoolan Devi and the major characters in “The God of Small Things”.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu makalenin amacı Hindistan’daki kast sisteminin evrimi ve evrim süreci boyunca İngiliz etkisinin rolü hakkında bir anlayış geliştirmek açısından Arundhati Roy’un “The God of Small Things” adlı eseri ile Mala Sen’in “India’s Bandit Queen” adlı eserlerini incelemektir. Öncelikle Hindistan’daki kast sisteminin özeti sunulmuştur. Roy’un “The God of Small Things” adlı eseri ile Sen’in eseri, diğer bir deyişle, Phoolan Devi’nin biyografisi Hindistan’daki kast sistemi örneklemelerine işaret etmek için kullanılmıştır. Makalede, karakterlerin ayaklanmaya yol açan, geleneksel kast sistemine aykırı olan değişen davranışları İngiliz etkisinin rolüyle ilişkilendirilmiştir. Phoolan Devi’yi ve “The God of Small Things” adlı eserdeki ana karakterleri göz önünde bulundurarak Hint toplumundaki bireyler için İngiliz etkisinin sonuçları tanımlanmıştır.
