' A Study In Scarlet, By Sherlock Holmes

The classic mystery novel, Sherlock Holmes, features a murder-mystery detective Sherlock Holmes, and his army doctor colleague Dr. John Watson. The story revolves around the main character, Sherlock Holmes, and his unique method to solving crimes. The story is mainly all about Sherlock and his abilities, which then rises the question about the importance of the character of Dr.Watson, both to the chaarcter of Sherlock Holmes, and towards the readers.

The legendary fictional character Sherlock Holmes was constructed by a basis of a French criminal expert and a famous police investigator. He is known for his prowess in perception and analysis. On the other hand, Holmes sympathy towards people is near absent. Holmes loves to breakdown the story of each person he comes in contact with it. However, he does make a mistake occasionally. Although, there are many positive representations of Holmes, the Downey-Holmes is the best.

Watson describes Holmes’s process of looking for clues and evidence of the murder as thus: “…he lounged up and down the down the pavement, and gazed vacantly at the ground, the sky, the opposite houses and the line of railings. […] he proceeded slowly down the path, or rather down the fringe of grass which flanked the path, keeping his eyes riveted upon the ground” (17). This shows that he focuses his attention first on any possible clues from the surrounding area outside and then concentrates on the ground once he’s determined where to look. It is also indicated that he has lowered levels of stress since he was lounging while looking for

In The Devil in the White City excerpt, Eric Larson depicts the trial of H.H. Holmes and dangers associated with him. Larson illustrates this through diction,imagery , and details to paint as Holmes as nearly inhuman. Due to a malicious tone, Larson is writing with the intent of bringing a sense of closure to his audience of fairgoers and others wondering about the irregularities of the Chicago fair. During the first few paragraphs of the excerpt Larson depicts a heartbroken Mrs. Pitezel to a sympathetic audience.

The sole purpose of the “prison diary,” was to supplement Holmes’s memoir in a last effort to prove his innocence. Remarkably, even after committing a string of tragic crimes including fraud and murder, Holmes still attempts to use his charming personality and deceiving ways to present himself as a, “man of warmth and piety,” in order to once again avoid being persecuted. However, explains Larson, it is actually sad how painfully easy it is to see through the lies of Holmes’s memoir and diary- they’re so sentimental that it is evident that they serve as a cover up of his actual evil and perversive nature. All in all, these details of Holmes’s actions in prison truly demonstrate the fact that he is insane- he believes that the police is completely incompetent and that he can easily trick them with his deceptive memoir and prison diary. However, little does he know that his tactics are becoming less and less effective and are actually beginning to expose his mental instability as the investigation against him proceeds. After reading this passage I was felt a combination of disgust and

The layout of the second floor was interesting because Holmes designed a maze that no one but him knew of the hidden secrets. It was in this floor where Holmes would play cat and mouse with his victims. The walls would be narrow in some location. He had corners that were hard to spot which made it easier for him to follow his victims. Chicago authorizes found multiple rooms that could’ve be used as closets but they had gas pipes within them. Holmes alos had a room reported by the authorities which had a electors. The electors would help holmes take the bodies down to the cellar. The 1st floor was an average floor with a pharmacy whihc was holmes day

Holmes was a charming, wealthy man with power. He was everything a woman could want. His looks drew the attention of susceptible women. He offered them jobs with good pay, a place to sleep, and much more. Not only was Holmes a good looking man, he was intelligent.

Holmes' thoughts are a mystery. Readers only know the thoughts of his friend Dr. John Watson, who narrates the stories Holmes is in. In this essay, I am going to argue that contrary to popular opinion, Sherlock Holmes has emotions. Not only is Holmes able to use his extraordinary intellect in order to solve mysteries, but he also uses his intellect to keep his own feelings in check. This essay will explore Holmes' emotions as well as the numerous instances that he keeps them under control by introducing the character, addressing instances when he seems emotionless, looking at what Holmes values, seeing what his relationships with women say about him, looking at the ordinary and unique aspects of Holmes, and finally addressing some of the medical labels Holmes is given.

The plot of Sherlock Holmes was figuring out the murders. Sherlock and Watson worked together to figure out who the murderer was and why he was doing the murders. There were 4 murders that happened by the victims having to choose a pill. One being bad, one being good and if they did not wanna choose, they were held at gunpoint. Sherlock, with how smart he is, was able to figure it out pretty quickly and was able to find out the murderer and stall him in a room till help came.

There are many other texts that can relate to this section of the the reading of A Study in Scarlet. One movie that comes to mind in this context is Iron Man 3. It reminds me of this specific section of text because there are these almost clear connections that bring these works together. One connection is when Holmes puts the advertisement in the paper for the ring. His plan is for the murdered to come looking for the ring having seen the advertisement. Holmes puts a lot of his trust in this plan to hopefully have the trap come through for the investigation. In a similar way, Tony Stark puts almost all of his dependency into his suits to ultimately rule over his enemies and to keep him safe.
