The Critical Reception of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Examines both academic and popular assessments of Conan Doyle's work, giving pride of place to the Holmes stories and their adaptations, and also attending to the wide range of his published work. Twenty-first-century readers, television viewers, and moviegoers know Arthur Conan Doyle as the creator of Sherlock Holmes, the world's most recognizable fictional detective. Holmes's enduring popularity has kept Conan Doyle in the public eye. However, Holmes has taken on a life of his own, generating a steady stream of critical commentary, while Conan Doyle's other works are slighted or ignored. Yet the Holmes stories make up only a small portion of Conan Doyle's published work, which includes mainstream and historical fiction; history; drama; medical, spiritualist, and political tracts; and even essays on photography. When Doyle published - whatever the subject - his contemporaries took note. Yet, outside of the fiction featuring Sherlock Holmes, until recently relatively little has been done to analyze the reception Conan Doyle's work received during his lifetime and since his death. This book examines both academic and popular assessments of Conan Doyle's work, giving pride of place to the Holmes stories and their many adaptations for print, visual, and online media, but attending to his other contributions to turn-of-the-twentieth-century culture as well. The availability of periodicals and newspapers online makes it possible to develop an assessment of Conan Doyle's (and Sherlock Holmes's) reputation among a wider readership and viewership, thus allowing for development of a broader and more accurate portrait of Doyle's place in literary and cultural history.

Arthur Conan Doyle a men une existence particuli rement riche et passionnante, le type de vie qu'on attribue un v ritable excentrique, ce qu'il n' tait pas. Il tait toutefois plein de ressources, courageux, intelligent, d vou et ouvert d'esprit. De nombreuses biographies ont t crites et vous pensez peut- tre que les moindres aspects de sa vie ont t couverts. Il semble pourtant que de nouvelles informations soient sans cesse mises jour, comme le prouve cet ouvrage. Le nom Arthur Conan Doyle a longtemps t clips par l'une de ses plus c l bres cr ations, Sherlock Holmes. Lorsque vous voquez Dartmoor, probablement neuf personnes interrog es sur dix pensent la plus grande aventure de Sherlock Holmes, The Hound of the Baskervilles, mais d'une fa on g n rale, les liens de Conan Doyle avec Dartmoor et le comt du Devon d passent largement cette oeuvre. Le premier cabinet dans lequel il travaille apr s avoir obtenu son dipl me de m decin se trouve Plymouth. Il s'agit assur ment d'un engagement de courte dur e mais le docteur Conan Doyle retourne dans le comt de nombreuses occasions. De nature active, il effectue toujours ces visites dans un objectif qui vont au-del du simple repos, comme vous pourrez le constater. La vie de deux autres hommes est inextricablement li e aux exp riences de Conan Doyle dans le Devon. George Turnavine Budd, qui fait de lui son associ dans le cabinet de Plymouth, et Bertram Fletcher Robinson, qui joue un r le essentiel dans la conception et l' bauche de The Hound of the Baskervilles. Le pr sent ouvrage se penche de fa on approfondie sur ces contributions. Des guides pour romantiques souhaitant suivre la piste de Sherlock Holmes existent d j . Je me r jouis d'accueillir ce livre qui se concentre plut t sur le cr ateur du d tective, et qui plus est r dig conjointement par un scientifique et un sp cialiste de Conan Doyle.Roger Johnson, diteur: The Sherlock Holmes Journal

The Norwood Author - Arthur Conan Doyle and the Norwood Years (1891 - 1894)
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is one of the most written about men who ever lived but despite this some parts of his life get little attention. One such period is between 1891 and 1894 when he lived in South Norwood in present day south east London. During this period he wrote and published much of his best work including the first two series of "Sherlock Holmes" short stories. This book looks at his life during this period and, in contrast to other biographies, spends time looking at some of his input into local Norwood life.
An Entirely New Country - Arthur Conan Doyle, Undershaw and the Resurrection of Sherlock Holmes
The late 1890s saw Arthur Conan Doyle return to England after several years abroad. His new house, named Undershaw, represented a fresh start but it was also the beginning of a dramatic decade that saw him fall in love, stand for parliament, fight injustice and be awarded a knighthood. However, for his many admirers, the most important event of that decade was the resurrection of Sherlock Holmes - the character that he felt had cast a shadow over his life.
