  • Small Episodes, Big Detectives
    Small Episodes, Big Detectives A genealogy of Detective Fiction and its Relation to Serialization MA Thesis Written by Bernardo Palau Cabrera Student Number: 11394145 Supervised by Toni Pape Ph.D. Second reader Mark Stewart Ph.D. MA in Media Studies - Television and Cross-Media Culture Graduate School of Humanities June 29th, 2018 Acknowledgments As I have learned from writing this research, every good detective has a sidekick that helps him throughout the investigation and plays an important role in the case solving process, sometimes without even knowing how important his or her contributions are for the final result. In my case, I had two sidekicks without whom this project would have never seen the light of day. Therefore, I would like to thank my thesis supervisor Toni Pape, whose feedback and kind advice was of great help. Thank you for helping me focus on the important and being challenging and supportive at the same time. I would also like to thank my wife, Daniela Salas, who has contributed with her useful insight, continuous encouragement and infinite patience, not only in the last months but in the whole master’s program. “Small Episodes, Big Detectives” 2 Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 4 1.

  • The Dutch Shoe Mystery
    The Dutch Shoe Mystery Ellery Queen To DR. S. J. ESSENSON for his invaluable advice on certain medical matters FOREWORD The Dutch Shoe Mystery (a whimsicality of title which will explain itself in the course of reading) is the third adventure of the questing Queens to be presented to the public. And for the third time I find myself delegated to perform the task of introduction. It seems that my labored articulation as oracle of the previous Ellery Queen novels discouraged neither Ellery’s publisher nor that omnipotent gentleman himself. Ellery avers gravely that this is my reward for engineering the publication of his Actionized memoirs. I suspect from his tone that he meant “reward” to be synonymous with “punishment”! There is little I can say about the Queens, even as a privileged friend, that the reading public does not know or has not guessed from hints dropped here and there in Opus 1 and Opus 2.* Under their real names (one secret they demand be kept) Queen pere and Queen fits were integral, I might even say major, cogs in the wheel of New York City’s police machinery. Particularly during the second and third decades of the century. Their memory flourishes fresh and green among certain ex-offi- cials of the metropolis; it is tangibly preserved in case records at Centre Street and in the crime mementoes housed in their old 87th Street apart- ment, now a private museum maintained by a sentimental few who have excellent reason to be grateful. As for contemporary history, it may be dismissed with this: the entire Queen menage, comprising old Inspector Richard, Ellery, his wife, their infant son and gypsy Djuna, is still immersed in the peace of the Italian hills, to all practical purpose retired from the manhunting scene .

  • Ellery Queen Master Detective
    Ellery Queen Master Detective Ellery Queen was one of two brainchildren of the team of cousins, Fred Dannay and Manfred B. Lee. Dannay and Lee entered a writing contest, envisioning a stuffed‐shirt author called Ellery Queen who solved mysteries and then wrote about them. Queen relied on his keen powers of observation and deduction, being a Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson rolled into one. But just as Holmes needed his Watson ‐‐ a character with whom the average reader could identify ‐‐ the character Ellery Queen had his father, Inspector Richard Queen, who not only served in that function but also gave Ellery the access he needed to poke his nose into police business. Dannay and Lee chose the pseudonym of Ellery Queen as their (first) writing moniker, for it was only natural ‐‐ since the character Ellery was writing mysteries ‐‐ that their mysteries should be the ones that Ellery Queen wrote. They placed first in the contest, and their first novel was accepted and published by Frederick Stokes. Stokes would go on to release over a dozen "Ellery Queen" publications. At the beginning, "Ellery Queen" the author was marketed as a secret identity. Ellery Queen (actually one of the cousins, usually Dannay) would appear in public masked, as though he were protecting his identity. The buying public ate it up, and so the cousins did it again. By 1932 they had created "Barnaby Ross," whose existence had been foreshadowed by two comments in Queen novels. Barnaby Ross composed four novels about aging actor Drury Lane. After it was revealed that "Barnaby Ross is really Ellery Queen," the novels were reissued bearing the Queen name.

  • Dexter – James Manos Jr
    Educación sentimental-televisiva La casualidad ha querido que encontrara el tiempo para escribir estas líneas pasando las vacaciones en una casa de campo del con- dado de Yorkshire, en el norte de Inglaterra, a escasas cinco millas del castillo de Howard. Esta mansión vecina se hizo popular en el siglo XX por alojar parte de la filmación de una película ilustre, Barry Lyndon, de Stanley Kubrick, y de una serie no menos distinguida: Retorno a Brideshead, la adaptación de Granada Television del libro homónimo de Evelyn Waugh que lanzó al estrellato a un joven Je- remy Irons. No es que hubiera escogido este destino vacacional en base a la proximidad de esta country house tricentenaria de la que guardo tan hondo recuerdo televisivo. Pero mentiría si dijera que no me alegré al conocer que la iba a tener tan a mano. De la misma manera que me complacería ir de vacaciones al estado de Washington, en Esta- dos Unidos, sabiendo que Snoqualmie y North Bend, los dos pue- blos en los que se rodaron los exteriores de Twin Peaks, están cerca, o viajaría a Gales con la ilusión de poder visitar en algún momento Portmeirion, la muy peculiar villa costera en la que se grabó El pri- sionero. Son todos ellos lugares que, gracias a las ficciones televisivas que durante un tiempo albergaron, dejaron algo dentro de mí; o quizá dejé yo algo dentro de ellos y ahora me gustaría saber de qué se trata. No sé. Tanto Twin Peaks como El prisionero aparecen seleccionadas por Quim Casas en la lista de 75 series que conforma este libro.
