With the progressing of this series, however, instead of being a sober companion, she repositions herself as detective beginner, and absorbs related knowledge with positive attitude. Therefore, Holmes is grateful for her grows. In episode sixteen Details, he reply to Watson’s objections as a sober companion of him, he says: ‘I know that you lied to me several weeks ago when you said that my father had renewed your contract. I found out when I telephoned him last week. I am not angry. If anything, I am grateful. You saw that I was in a raw state, and you stayed to see me through it. But when I learned that that was a lie, however, I deliberately adopted a more sanguine mode. I wanted you to see that I was well again so that you could move on. But the most curious thing happened.

This advancement in this series reveals Watson’s influence on Holmes’ humanity. Nevertheless, she continues the lesser status of a disciple until the last episode, even though Holmes agrees and acknowledges with her help as a sober companion. His proposal indicates the relationship of a companion, who may imply an equivalent, while the words he uses to term their new relations, such as ‘teach you’, ‘be my assistant’, restates the position of tutor and student. Joan seems restrained and contemplative when Sherlock proposes to intensify this master-apprentice relationship. Moreover, while Holmes continues this proposal of discussion salary, and other financial deals, it repositions Watson as dependence of Holmes, instead of an independent individual. Yet, despite CBS apparently refigures Watson as a woman, the whole first season only remakes a surgeon into a nurse, although in an unusual setup, even transform a self-employed nurse into an employee. Therefore, Elementary does not interpret Watson as a greatly revolutionary female as the one in King’s
“Has your energy depleted Bridgette?” Amiable, despite the apparent lack of care he was affording either her or her visage, his thumb trailing across one of the faces blinking up at him from that page. Rubbed half-semi-circle into that image, lips pressed together with a fondness that didn't translate properly onto his features. “Should you prefer, at any point, we can further discuss things- your conversation has always been anything but engaging darling, perhaps you'd rather conserve your strength for the latter?” Was a slow swivel, his nail pressing into the very center of that face, eyebrows just barely lifted as to the conversation he was verbally carrying out, that 'no' just near beneath the decibel needed for the utterance at all. Paused, in his own reply, slow roll of his eyes upwards to that back that was presented him- whisper of something behind that reflection of his eyes just before she shifted her weight from one foot to the other. [I] “No sir.”[/i] Better- tap of his fingers against his table his only response as his gaze fell once more- that barely recognized rip within those pages from where that crescent shaped nail had dug into it... irritated, that flick of the paper over, face now covered
Flavia de Luce and Sherlock Holmes are almost identical in comparison, with brilliance and intuitiveness that is immediately apparent when the characters are first introduced. They both are single-handed investigators, but Holmes has Dr. John Watson to accompany him on investigations. Although, Sherlock still is the one who puts together clues, with his own intuitiveness, and comes to conclusions. In The Red-Headed League it discusses, “... his brilliant reasoning power would rise to the level of intuition…”
Watson comes around and alters that mentality that only a man could successfully do this job but also doing the job without the use of tools. Her presence completely alters the order that the men she worked with were used to which only fueled the hatred for her and the discrimination she experienced. During this time period, handywork such as cleaning, cooking, or sewing was considered a woman’s job. When tools or machinery are involved the whole dynamic is changed into a man’s job. There were so many expectations as to how women should act or what jobs they should have. In Jamaica Kincaid’s short story “Girl,” readers are bombarded with a list of demands that are meant for a young woman. “Wash the white clothes on Monday and put them on the stone heap; cook pumpkin fritters in very hot sweet oil; this is how to sew on a button; this is how you iron your father’s khaki pants so that they don’t have a crease” (Kincaid 306). It wasn’t until during/after the first World War that women began getting positions in the workforce due to the lack of men who were not on the battlefield. More and more women would get hired into the workforce because they would get paid lower wages than men. In “Girl,” whenever the young woman did something that the speaker did not approve of she was considered a slut. Just like whenever women tried to take
The looming prospect of Miss Morstan becoming extremely wealthy clearly weighs on Watson, and he becomes insecure with his own life and his ability to be able to love this woman. “What was I,” he asked, “an army surgeon with a weak leg and a weaker
Client mentioned that she had a busy good week. She will be staying with her aunt this summer, and she will be able to save some money as she has found two jobs.

This excerpt alone can describe the relationship between the detective and his partner, separating Holmes from Watson by interpreting how he observes and infers upon the scene of the crime versus Watson, who is intelligent nonetheless but not as keen as Holmes in identifying such specific details. In terms of this discussion, it can be assumed that Doyle may have intended to use this dialogue to play out the scene in a dynamic way to show the difference between the two. Here, Holmes carries most of the conversation while Watson listens and struggles to follow Holmes’s complicated thinking. Another factor to consider is how Holmes asks Watson many rhetorical questions. This aspect of their interactions compares their sense of understanding as well, suggesting that Holmes has a habit of asking these questions to explain his observations to Watson.
Holmes was sitting down at the table of the old coffee shop, the silence dragging on. He was waiting for friend, Watson, to arrive. Watson wanted to talk about something important. Holmes did not know what it was about, but he was extremely curious as to why Watson was making such a big deal about it.
This is displayed throughout the book where Christopher does not know many people, nor does he desire to get to know anyone. He frequently mentions his father, who he lives with and also his school psychiatrist Siobhan. Siobhan helps Christopher, tries to teach him about Social contact, and is also one of the few who can get Christopher out of his uncomfortable shell. In The Hound of Baskervilles, Doctor Watson acts similarly to Siobhan, constantly trying to keep Holmes from hurting other’s feelings and in addition trying to get him to behave in a socially acceptable

Watson describes women as second-class citizens at the start of the story without directly saying so. Watson comments: “My own
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle utilizes many/several 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.
She's a really contemporary female, particularly for the 1950s. She brought her California design to the university and it is incredibly enthusiastic about each arts as well as the pupils of her. Watson thinks which the pupils of her are bright and young and may do a lot with the day of theirs. The cultural conformity they are supposed to be to focuses on after matrimony for females. Although an extremely good connect is produced in between the mentor as well as pupils, Watson's perceptions are actually. very contemporary as well as incompatible together with the primary society of this university.
Coulson, 2004). Sherlock is a part of the upper class while Watson is seen as a middle class citizen while he is respected but he isn't on the same level as Holmes. He is also respected for his work as a doctor and is known for being hard working. Sherlock is portrayed as a troubled but brilliant detective who is often troubled and socially awkward with people. He also deals with psychological noise with the fact that he sees everything he call it both a gift and a curse at the same time. Holmes and Watson both have different degrees of perceived self and presenting self. In Watson case his is more concerned with his presenting self than Sherlock is (C. M. Shaw& R. Edwards, 1997).
What mainly gave rise to Watson addressing this topic was her emotions attached to the burdens people have felt because of gender inequality. Watson used pathos, an appeal to emotion, to grasp the audience’s attention. Watson provides examples of events in her own life such as, “When at 14, I started to be sexualized by certain elements of the media,” which has helped spark her interest in taking steps to end gender inequality (Watson). Watson provided numerous examples of other women, “When at 15, my girlfriends started dropping out of sports teams because they didn’t want to appear muscly,” as well as examples of males (Watson). Watson recognizes the fact that men are typically less likely to join in the fight for gender equality. In order for Watson to later “invite” men to join the
Watson recalls a time from when faced the unsatisfactory of assumptions of young women, when she said “at age [fourteen] I started being sexualized by certain elements of the press” also when her peers began to submit towards the societal intimidation which placed upon them saying, according to Watson, “When at [fifteen] my girlfriends started dropping out of their sports teams because they didn’t want to appear “muscly.”” Watson shared these illustrations to allow her audience to be familiar with someone who has been a target to gender inequality. Without seeing the matter of gender inequality, the problem can be very blind at times; without actually viewing it through the human experiences, it can be lost to statistics and generalizations. Personifying the matter allows it to strengthen the sympathy and compassion from the audience to be felt for the speaker.
