That is not because everyone has read Arthur Conan Doyle's stories about this famous character. Ever since the stories were first published in 1887 they have been adapted into screen films and television series. During these 100 years the character has also transformed. Newer adaptations have also been inspired by previous adaptations, which changes the Holmes that was first created by Conan Doyle into a character that the everyone who adapts him contributes to. Film adaptations are a filmmaker's interpretations of stories and characters. In recent years several Sherlock Holmes adaptations have been created. Many alterations regarding the original stories by Doyle have been made to please the contemporary audience. Due to limited time and space, this thesis shall focus mainly on the BBC series Sherlock created by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, which first aired in 2010. Gatiss and Moffat have analysed the characters and stories thoroughly; they have then deconstructed them en reassembled them in twenty-first century England.

  • William S. Baring-Gould Was a Time Executive Whose Contributions to the Literary World (And Especially to Sherlockians) Are Manifest
    Honorary Member, Emeritus photo courtesy of Bill Vande Water William Stuart Baring-Gould 1913-1967 William S. Baring-Gould was a Time executive whose contributions to the literary world (and especially to Sherlockians) are manifest. Mr. Baring-Gould was a descendent of the well-known author and archivist Reverend Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-1924) who was a featured character in Laurie King's book The Moor. He was the author of numerous important Sherlockian works including, Sherlock Holmes of Baker Street, The Chronological Holmes and the famous The Annotated Sherlock Holmes. The Annotated Sherlock Holmes is considered by many Sherlockians as his crowning achievement and is a must in every Sherlock Holmes Collection. He authored other works, including The Lure of the Limerick: An Uninhibited History, Nero Wolfe of West Thirty-fifth Street (a work about the detective whom some speculate is the "son" of Sherlock Holmes) and collaborated with his wife, Ceil, onThe Annotated Mother Goose, Nursery Rhymes Old and New. All of these works are important volumes in their respective literary worlds. Mr. Baring-Gould was BSI and invested as "The Gloria Scott". Julian Wolfe said at his passing: "In the true Irregular tradition, and in accordance with the precepts of Christopher Morley, he was always ready to encourage young Sherlockians, many of whom owe much to his valuable asistance." Sherlockian.Net: William S. Baring-Gould Bill Baring-Gould, 1913-1967 W. S. Baring-Gould was an executive of Time Inc. and a distinguished though modest Sherlockian (invested in the Baker Street Irregulars as "The Gloria Scott", 1952).

  • 2015 Jhws Treasure Hunt
    2015 JHWS TREASURE HUNT “Mr. Sherlock Holmes” Category: Holmes’s personality 1. This author, while writing his own stories about a fatherly detective, went so far as to assert that Sherlock Holmes was not a man, but a god. Who? (1 pt.) Answer: G.K. Chesterton, author of the Father Brown mysteries ---See The Sherlock Holmes Collection, The University of Minnesota, USH Volume I, Section VI: The Writings About the Writings, Chesterson, G.K., Sherlock Holmes the God, G.K.’s Weekly (February 21, 1935), at lib.umn.edu, and numerous others. ---Full quote: “Not once is there a glance at the human and hasty way in which the stories were written; not once even an admission that they were written. The real inference is that Sherlock Holmes really existed and that Conan Doyle never existed. If posterity only reads these latter books, it will certainly suppose them to be serious. It will imagine that Sherlock Holmes was a man. But he was not; he was only a god.” 2. Holmes did not, perhaps, have a knowledge of women across the continents, but, according to Watson, Holmes did hold a position across several of them. How many continents and what position? (2 pts.) Answer: Three, position of unofficial adviser and helper to everybody who is absolutely puzzled ---W., p. 191, IDEN: I smiled and shook my head. "I can quite understand you thinking so," I said. "Of course, in your position of unofficial adviser and helper to everybody who is absolutely puzzled, throughout three continents, you are brought in contact with all that is strange and bizarre.

    THE DISTRICT MESSENGER The Newsletter of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London Roger Johnson, Mole End, 41 Sandford Road, Chelmsford CM2 6DE no. 145 18th October 1994 John Bennett Shaw ('The Hans Sloane of My Age', BSI) died on the 2nd October, of a heart attack, just a week before his 81st birthday. He didn't lose consciousness and was not in pain; death itself came suddenly and instantaneously. Much of the December 1990 issue of The Baker Street Journal was devoted to John's life and career as a Sherlockian, and a proper tribute should be that long. Briefly though: he was probably the world's greatest and most omnivorous Holmesian collector; he was responsible for starting more Holmes societies than most of us can imagine; he vetted applications to become scions of the Baker Street Irregulars; he had a taste for good food, good drink and bad puns; he was Big Brother in the most stimulating and comfortable way possible, and as such he had hundreds (perhaps thousands) of little brothers and sisters world-wide. He was irreplaceable. Another long-time supporter of this newsletter died recently, Mr L.T. Archer of Clacton-on-Sea; an elderly gentleman who was unable to attend the Society's meetings often, he was related to George Lusk of the Whitechapel vigilantes ('From Hell. Mr Lusk, Sor...’). Peter Blau reports that Robert Bloch died on the 23rd September; though he'll be forever tagged 'the author of PsychoPsycho’, he made good use in his stories and essays of his knowledge and love of the Holmesian canon.

  • Trenches: the War Service of Sherlock
    Trenches: The War Service of Sherlock Holmes A Facsimile of the Partial Original Manuscript of “His Last Bow” by Arthur Conan Doyle with Annotations and Commentary on the Story and Studies of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle and World War I Edited & introduced by Robert Katz, MD, BSI and Andrew Solberg, BSI Order it at: www.bakerstreetjournal.com 288 pages, 10” x 7” hardcover, December 2017 With the manuscript reproduction plus 48 b&w illustrations August 1914 – Mycroft Holmes and Pre-War European Diplomacy by Ross Davies What caused World War I? And how was it that the diplomats and their masters failed to avert such an obviously disastrous bloodbath?1 Scholars cannot agree. Indeed, even among elite European historians (a crowd that specializes in studying the evolution of a complex of complex cultures), the tangled threads that led to the Great War are viewed as an extraordinarily terrible mare’s nest. Nevertheless, there is enough common ground on some main themes to make for a fairly coherent conventional narrative of pre-war European diplomacy. It begins in October 1879 — when Austria-Hungary and Germany formed the Dual Alliance. It ends in August 1914 — when diplomacy failed and the Central Powers (Austria-Hungary and Germany) and the Entente Powers (France, Russia and Great Britain) declared war on each other. That passage of 35 years also marks, roughly, the span of Mycroft Holmes’s career in the British government. His involvement in the maneuverings of the great powers in those times may be invisible to most modern eyes (as it was to his contemporaries), but there are clues.
