Introduction to The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes

  • サマリー

  • In this new season of Adventures in Compliance, host Tom Fox takes a deep dive into the Sherlock Holmes collection The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle. It is final set of twelve Sherlock Holmes short stories by Arthur Conan Doyle first published in the Strand Magazine between October 1921 and April 1927. In the 1920’s Conan Doyle once again returned to his great creation for 12 more stories (and final) which were first published in The Strand, and then published collectively as The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes in 1927. To some, they suggest a new narrative style, as 9 are told by Watson as the reader would expect, but one is narrated in the third person, and two by Holmes himself. Watson is at pains in the opening narrative to "Thor Bridge" to explain the change: 'In some [cases] I was myself concerned and can speak as an eye-witness, while in others I was either not present or played so small a part that they could only be told as by a third person.' ... Conan Doyle’s struggle to ring the changes on what had become for him a tired formula reflected his personal literary journey. Three stories of the collection are not narrated by Dr Watson, unlike most Sherlock Holmes stories. "The Mazarin Stone" is narrated in the third person, since it was adapted from a stage play in which Watson hardly appeared. "The Blanched Soldier" and "The Lion's Mane" are both narrated by Holmes himself, the latter being set after his retirement This collection marks the final appearances of Sherlock Holmes and contains some of the more peculiar and dark stories in the series.
