It was in late 1903 after the affair I would eventually chronicle as “The Adventure
of the Creeping Man” for The Strand magazine, when my friend Sherlock Holmes
seemed to be in an unusual mood of dark disturbance . I could only assume that
it was the Abercrombie situation that was playing upon his mind—a dangerous
escaped convict who was said to be on his way to London . Holmes would not
speak of it and even the press was sparse regarding details, so I put the matter
aside ...

It is the London of 1895, the London that will bring a stream of unusual characters
to 221B Baker Street seeking help from the world's first and greatest consulting
detective, Mr. Sherlock Holmes. When Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) first
created the great detective, little did he know that he was beginning a series of
stories that would still be read some 120odd years later. But Conan Doyle was an
inventive writer, and the characters that filled his stories gripped the imagination

Holmes asked playfully and even to Watson he sounded most sincere. “Surely
the great detective, Mr Sherlock Holmes could tell me without any help from me?”
she smiled sweetly. “One does not like to, ah, blow one's own trumpet, so to
speak.” Watson and Mary snorted into their tea cups. Watson covered by clearing
his throat loudly, poorly attempting to conceal a laugh. If there was one thing
Holmes wasn't, it was modest concerning his work or abilities. Holmes merely
slanted his ...

The Philosophy of Sherlock Holmes

Arguably the most famous and recognized detective in history, Sherlock Holmes is considered by many to be the first pop icon of the modern age. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective has stood as a unique figure for more than a century with his reliance on logical rigor, his analytic precision, and his disregard of social mores. A true classic, the Sherlock Holmes character continues to entertain twenty-first-century audiences on the page, stage, and screen. In The Philosophy of Sherlock Holmes, a team of leading scholars use the beloved character as a window into the quandaries of existence, from questions of reality to the search for knowledge. The essays explore the sleuth's role in revealing some of the world's most fundamental philosophical issues, discussing subjects such as the nature of deception, the lessons enemies can teach us, Holmes's own potential for criminality, and the detective's unique but effective style of inductive reasoning. Emphasizing the philosophical debates raised by generations of devoted fans, this intriguing volume will be of interest to philosophers and Holmes enthusiasts alike.

The “Great Hiatus” is the term used by Holmes scholars to refer to the period of
time between Holmes's tumble off of Reichenbach Falls in the “Adventure of the
Final Problem” and his resurfacing three years later (in the chronology of Doyle's
stories) in “The Adventure of the Empty House.” During those three years,
Holmes was presumed dead and had gone deep undercover to trap all of
Moriarty's lieutenants. By the end of that story, he had succeeded in arresting the
last member of ...

Arguably an even better example from the Holmes canon is 1910's “The
Adventure of the Devil's Foot .” Holmes hypothesizes that the victims went mad
and/or died from inhaling the powdered root of an African plant that, once heated,
vaporizes and carries on the air . He tests the hypothesis on himself—so
successfully that Watson must save him, in what is one of the duo's most
harrowing moments. Conan Doyle created the fictional plant at the heart of the
mystery, but he presents it as ...
