Baskerville Books Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes Catalogue Garrideb - January 2019 Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes - Catalogue Garrideb Welcome to my first Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes catalogue of 2019. You will find around 380 works discussing the Sherlock Holmes stories and Conan Doyle including reference works, comparative studies, and biographies. You will also find images of every book on our web site: www.baskervillebooks.co.uk In many cases there is only one copy of each book so please contact me by e-mail first regarding the books you would like to buy, quoting the Reference number at the end of each entry. I will then provide a quote, including postage and packing, for those which are still available. Books will be dispatched by the cheapest Royal Mail option unless otherwise instructed; I recommend 'insured' and/or 'signed for' for more expensive items. Once I have confirmation that you are happy to proceed I will raise a PayPal invoice. My preferred method is PayPal as it is quick, easy, supports credit and debit card payments, and I don't need to request or store any of your financial details. Good hunting! Grading Books Fine: Almost like new. VG: Clearly second-hand but with no major imperfections. G: Complete, but with clear signs of wear and use. Reading or reference copies are sometimes offered, particularly of scarcer items. These will have major faults but will contain the entire text. Dustwrappers Fine: Almost like new. VG: Complete but with minor imperfections (e.g. small tears or creases). G: Complete but with more substantive faults (e.g. bad creasing, large tears, or pieces missing). Other terms used DW: Dustwrapper. +: Not quite the grade above, but close! I try to grade the books as fairly as possible, but one person's small tear is another's gaping chasm. I may simply have missed something. So, if you are dissatisfied with the description of any item, please contact me in the first instance ([email protected]) and we'll sort something out. All dustwrappers are supplied in a removable protective cover. And if it doesn't say it is a First Edition, it isn't.

    The Shaw One Hundred

    The Basic Holmesian Library A Catalog by Timothy J. Johnson In conjunction with an exhibit based on John Bennett Shaw's list of One Hundred and a conference sponsored by The Norwegian Explorers of Minnesota Elmer L. Andersen Library Special Collections & Rare Books University of Minnesota Libraries June — July 2001 Minneapolis 2001 Introduction to the Exhibit “Some years ago I staged an exhibition of what I then considered to be the One Hundred Basic Books, pamphlets and periodicals relating to Sherlock Holmes.” So wrote John Bennett Shaw in a short introduction to his first official compilation of these books, pamphlets and periodicals, which he titled “The Basic Holmesian Library”. His goal was to give “an in-depth view of the entire Holmesian culture,” and while he admitted the difficulty encountered in choosing what to include out of so many fine writings, he approached this daunting task with the enthusiasm of one who truly understood the meaning of Collecting Sherlockiana. His own library, which he defined in his essay “Collecting Sherlockiana” as “…a number of books and other printed material on one subject, or on several,” focused on Sherlock Holmes. An avid bibliophile, he narrowed his collecting to this one subject after donating his other collections to such universities as Notre Dame, Tulsa, and the University of New Mexico. It is perhaps ironic to use the term narrowed for such a collection, which grew to over 15, 000 items. As his own library expanded with acquisitions of previously printed as well as newly published items, he revised his list of the Basic Holmesian Library.

    Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2015

    Jan 15 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 161st birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 7 to Jan. 11. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at Annie Moore's, and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morn- ing, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's. The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Alan Bradley, co-author of MS. HOLMES OF BAKER STREET (2004), and author of the award-winning "Flavia de Luce" series; the title of his talk was "Ha! The Stars Are Out and the Wind Has Fallen" (his paper will be published in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal). The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's Restaurant was well attended, as always, and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton and An- drew Joffe) entertained the audience with an updated version of "The Sher- lock Holmes Cable Network" (2000). The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey Award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber), which honors the most whimsical piece in The Ser- pentine Muse last year: the winner (Jenn Eaker) received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17. And Otto Penzler's traditional open house at the Mysterious Bookshop provided the usual opportunities to browse and buy.

    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 Reception of the Affaire Dreyfus in British Literature and Culture, 1894-1940

    Dipartimento di Studi Europei, Americani e Interculturali Dottorato di ricerca in Scienze del testo THE RECEPTION OF THE AFFAIRE DREYFUS IN BRITISH LITERATURE AND CULTURE, 1894-1940 Alessandra Crotti Matricola 1750394 Relatore Prof. Riccardo Capoferro A.A. 2018-2019 Abstract: La tesi propone lo studio della ricezione dell'Affaire Dreyfus (1894-1906) nella vita politica e culturale inglese della prima metà del ventesimo secolo attraverso l'analisi della sua rappresentazione nella produzione letteraria. Pur appartenendo alla vita politica e culturale della Francia moderna, l'Affaire Dreyfus divenne oggetto di ampio dibattito anche in territorio inglese, intrecciandosi con la storia della società tardo-vittoriana tra il 1897 e il 1900. In Gran Bretagna come in Francia, l'Affaire instaurò un forte legame con la letteratura, con la vita degli intellettuali e con il romanzo, entrando con forza nei testi sia a livello tematico che formale. Nonostante l'entità del fenomeno Dreyfus, la presenza dell'Affaire nella produzione letteraria inglese è raramente riconosciuta e mai studiata. La ricerca intende quindi muoversi verso una ricostruzione quanto più possibile completa della ricezione dell'Affaire Dreyfus in Gran Bretagna passando attraverso lo specchio della letteratura, sia popolare che canonica. La prima parte dell’indagine è quindi dedicata alla produzione culturale e letteraria popolare: dopo aver descritto la presenza pervasiva dell’Affaire nell’ambito dell’intrattenimento popolare, verrà analizzata l’assenza (assoluta e quindi sospetta) dell’Affaire nel romanzo gotico di fine secolo, sito preferenziale di rappresentazione delle fantasie di eliminazione dell’altro. In seguito, verrà evidenziato il ruolo chiave che il caso Dreyfus ebbe come catalizzatore della nascita della spy story inglese, rintracciando temi, motivi e caratterizzazioni ad esso ispirati.

    “WHAT ONE MAN CAN INVENT, ANOTHER CAN DISCOVER” MUSIC AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF SHERLOCK HOLMES FROM LITERARY GENTLEMAN DETECTIVE TO ON-SCREEN ROMANTIC GENIUS By Emily Michelle Baumgart A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Musicology – Master of Arts 2015 ABSTRACT “WHAT ONE MAN CAN INVENT, ANOTHER CAN DISCOVER” MUSIC AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF SHERLOCK HOLMES FROM LITERARY GENTLEMAN DETECTIVE TO ON-SCREEN ROMANTIC GENIUS By Emily Michelle Baumgart Arguably one of the most famous literary characters of all time, Sherlock Holmes has appeared in numerous forms of media since his inception in 1887. With the recent growth of on-screen adaptations in both film and serial television forms, there is much new material to be analyzed and discussed. However, recent adaptations have begun exploring new reimaginings of Holmes, discarding his beginnings as the Victorian Gentleman Detective to create a much more flawed and multi-faceted character. Using Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s original work as a reference point, this study explores how recent adaptors use both Holmes’s diegetic violin performance and extra-diegetic music. Not only does music in these screen adaptations take the role of narrative agent, it moreover serves to place the character of Holmes into the Romantic Genius archetype. Copyright by EMILY MICHELLE BAUMGART 2015 .ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am incredibly grateful to my advisor Dr. Kevin Bartig for his expertise, guidance, patience and good humor while helping me complete this document. Thank you also to my committee members Dr. Joanna Bosse and Dr. Michael Largey for their new perspectives and ideas.

    THE DISTRICT MESSENGER the Newsletter of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London Roger Johnson, Mole End, 4L Sandford Road, Chelmsford CM2 6DE

    THE DISTRICT MESSENGER The Newsletter of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London Roger Johnson, Mole End, 4l Sandford Road, Chelmsford CM2 6DE no. 137 17th January 1994 We were privileged a couple of weekends ago to be among the unprecedented British contingent that attended the annual Sherlockian festivities in New York. The new investitures awarded by the Baker Street Irregulars included several to DM readers: Catherine Cooke ("The Book of Life"), Geoffrey Stavert ("The Shingle of Southsea"), Francine Swift ("The Wigmore Street Post Office"), T. Michelle Fromkin ("The Missing Three-Quarter"), Peter Crupe ("The Noble Bachelor") and Thom Utecht ("Arthur Charpentier"). Those are the ones I can remember at the moment; see the next issue of The Baker Street JourJournalnal for a full list. It's available on subscription from P.O. Box 465, Hanover, PA 17331, U.S.A., and it's a must among Holmesian periodicals. Tom Stix (“Wiggins” of the BSI) attended our Society's annual dinner at the Regent Hotel last Saturday and presented one further investiture, to our President, Tony Howlett ("John Hector McFarlane"). This represents a very graceful tribute, since Tom's own investiture (“Wiggins” is his title as head of the BSI) is "The Norwood Builder". (*An account of the dinner will appear in The Sherlock Holmes JournalJournal.*) Tony's, Catherine's and Geoffrey's investitures make the number of living British BSIs up to twelve - a Baker Street Dozen. Geoffrey is already being referred to among his friends as "Shingle". The place in New York to look for Holmesiana is still Otto Penzler's Mysterious Bookshop at 129 West 56th Street, but other sources are the long-established Murder Ink (now under new ownership, we're told) at 2486 Broadway, and the two branches of Foul Play, at 13 8th Avenue and 1456B 2nd Avenue.
