    The Creation, Reception and Perpetuation of the Sherlock Holmes Phenomenon, 1887 - 1930 by Katherine Mary Wisser A Master’s paper submitted to the faculty of the School of Information and Library Science of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Library Science. Chapel Hill, North Carolina June, 2000 Approved by: _______________________ Advisor 2 Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge several people who have contributed to the completion of this project. Elizabeth Chenault and Imre Kalanyos at the Rare Book Collection were instrumental in helping me with the texts in their collection. Their patience and professionalism cannot be overstated. Special thanks go to my advisor, Dr. Jerry D. Saye for supporting and encouraging me throughout the program. This work is dedicated to my husband, whose steadfast love and support keeps me going.

June, 2000. pages. Advisor: Jerry D. Saye This study examines the role of author, reader and publisher in the creation of the Sherlock Holmes legacy. Each entity participated in the inculcation of this cultural phenomenon. This includes Conan Doyle’s creation of the character and his perception of that creation, the context of the stories as seen through the reader’s eye, and the publishers’ own actions as intermediary and as agent. The examination of 160 Holmes texts at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Wilson Library Rare Book Collection provides insights into the manipulation of the book as object during Conan Doyle’s life, including such elements as cover design, advertisements and illustrations.

  • A Scandal in Bohemia Arthur Conan-Doyle
    A Scandal in Bohemia Arthur Conan-Doyle I. To Sherlock Holmes she is always THE woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen, but as a lover he would have placed himself in a false position. He never spoke of the softer passions, save with a gibe and a sneer. They were admirable things for the observer--excellent for drawing the veil from men's motives and actions. But for the trained reasoner to admit such intrusions into his own delicate and finely adjusted temperament was to introduce a distracting factor which might throw a doubt upon all his mental results. Grit in a sensitive instrument, or a crack in one of his own high-power lenses, would not be more disturbing than a strong emotion in a nature such as his. And yet there was but one woman to him, and that woman was the late Irene Adler, of dubious and questionable memory. I had seen little of Holmes lately. My marriage had drifted us away from each other. My own complete happiness, and the home-centred interests which rise up around the man who first finds himself master of his own establishment, were sufficient to absorb all my attention, while Holmes, who loathed every form of society with his whole Bohemian soul, remained in our lodgings in Baker Street, buried among his old books, and alternating from week to week between cocaine and ambition, the drowsiness of the drug, and the fierce energy of his own keen nature.

  • “A Scandal in Bohemia”
    An Inquiry into: “A Scandal in Bohemia” Vol. XII No. 42 June 24, 2021 “A Scandal in Bohemia” was first published in The Strand Magazine in July 1891. It is part of The Adventures of Sher- lock Holmes. As the table shows, the majority of our chronologists agree on which year this adventure took place. If indeed the year in which this case took place was 1889, as the majority of our experts think, then at the time Sherlock Holmes was 35 years old and Doctor John H. Wat- son 37. Main Characters: Wilhelm Gottsreich Sigismond von Ormstein, king of Bohemia. Irene Adler, American opera singer, not- ed adventuress and King Wil- helm’s former mistress. Godfrey Norton, English barrister who weds Irene. Notable Quotes: To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particular- ly, were abhorrent to his cold, pre- cise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen, but as a lover he would have placed himself in a false position. He never spoke of the softer passions, save with a gibe and a sneer. They were admirable things for the observer—excellent for drawing the veil from men’s motives and actions.
