These details are why this mystery story is such an interesting and a classic.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born in 1859 in Edinburgh, United Kingdom into a poor Irish Catholic family. Although his grades were not the best, Doyle’s parents were able to send him to medical school. In addition to being poor, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s home life was miserable, so he used the university as a sanctuary to get away from his cruel conditions. At the University of Edinburgh, Doyle’s professor and later inspiration, was Dr. Joseph Bell. Dr. Bell had astounding powers of deduction which he used to in addition to his medical experience as surgeon to examine many crime scenes. Bell’s awe-inspiring abilities will later become Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s source of inspiration for Sherlock Holmes.

After having many of his works published in a local magazine, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle writes his first Sherlock Holmes story. Sherlock Holmes instantly became a huge success who captivated its readers with his incredible powers of deduction. With the fame of Holmes, came more demands for Doyle to write more stories. In contrast to Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle becoming a huge success, no one knew that the beloved character was based on a real man. Doyle’s inspiration for Sherlock Holmes finally comes to light in an interview with the press. Little did Doyle know that his gratitude would soon become Dr. Bell’s curse. Following the

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.

“I was born with the devil in me. I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help the inspiration to sing..” - Herman Webster Mudgett as known as H.H Holmes. It’s safe to say Dr. Mudgett was a bad guy. Either way, he has an interesting story.

Growing up, I enjoyed reading the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. These stories allowed me to intellectually immerse myself into the vivid world of Holmes and his partner Dr. John Watson as they solved criminal mysteries. I was captured by the methodological and detailed focus the characters exhibited regarding intricate clues that guided their investigations into successfully solving crimes. Many aspects of medicine parallel the methods utilized by Holmes and Watson. Similar to the adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the practicing physician observes how the human body works and they study evidence based reasoning in an attempt to apply this information to reach a diagnosis and decide upon a treatment.

I would first like to thank you all, friends and family alike for joining us here today. Our friend, Herman W. Mudgett, who most people knew as H.H. Holmes; was my closest friend for most of my life. In our early years of childhood he was a crazy kid, though he always had nice things to say about people. He was so creative and with his ingenuity he never ceased to amaze everyone with his creations. His all time goal in life was to build something everyone could enjoy at The chicago’s world fair, but in the early stages of his life that didn't seem plausible. As well as we all knew him, that wasn't going to stop him. He was an insurance policy salesman and he could sell anyone, anything. So with that chapter of his life going on, besides the

Detective fiction is a relatively young genre of literature: “The idea that crime … provided entertainment was only born in the first decades of the nineteenth century, but it would bloom into one of the greatest mass-media interests of all time” (Worsley 17, italics in the original). In spite of its youthfulness, this genre has already developed its own rules and regulations/conventions, as well as established its own canon.

Comparing the fictitious Sherlock Holmes to the mid-20th century retelling the famous Christie serial murders, there is a shift on how evidence is collected and impacts a criminal investigation. Sherlock Holmes, although not apart of commissioned law enforcement, is very generalized in investigation. His minute level of training in the criminal justice field, demonstrated that the best detectives are not found within any state institution in the 19th century. In the eyes of the reader, any citizen could be a detective with little training if you were smart enough. He not only examines background information, but collects evidence, interprets it, and takes justice into his own hands. With little help from Watson, Sherlock Holmes epitomizes the

he music changed and the next dancer went on then the next. John was half way through his first beer when Sherlock put his hand over Johns and leaned in close to whisper in his ear. "The man in the white shirt, 4 tables over have been eyeing you since you walked in. He's going to come over and ask if he can buy you a drink." He pulled away and gave John a smirk. John was frozen, his heart beating in his chest, his cheeks heating up. Sherlock was right the man did come over.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle utilizes many detail-oriented literary elements to develop the many adventures of the famous fictional British detective Sherlock Holmes and his partner, John Watson. Long winded description and complex vocabulary are infused into Doyle’s writing to accentuate Holmes’s great intelligence. By incorporating such a heavy, educated tone upon the mysteries, the tales of Sherlock Holmes are expressed as very complicated stories that challenge readers in comprehension as well as encourage curiosity through puzzling cases.

Arthur Conan Doyle’s legacy rests heavily on one Victorian creation: the character of Sherlock Holmes. Holmes's attitude of intelligence and originality continues to keep fans inclined and fascinated ever since the Victorian era. Holmes persists as remakes and reincarnations of the Sherlock character keep the mastermind relevant. While the modernization of Sherlock creates a personal connection between the reader and Sherlock in “A Scandal in Belgravia,” the BBC adaptation dilutes Sherlock’s character from a distinguished genius to a mere detective.
