It is instead a work that deciphers in particular the cryptic origins and actual scientific methods used by fiction's most famous consulting detective Sherlock Holmes--and a work that provides a detailed look into the psyche and working life of Holmes' creator, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The book follows Doyle's entire illustrious literary career, with emphasis on the Sherlock Holmes mysteries as they evolved from the late 1880s to the early 1900s. Revealed here for the first time--by son-father writing team Daniel Friedman, MD, and Eugene Friedman, MD--are the many inspirations behind the physical, emotional, and intellectual characteristics that Doyle wove together so deftly to bring his legendary sleuth to life. Readers are in for many surprises as the Friedmans bring forth tantalizing parallels between the literary realm of both Sherlock Holmes--along with his various other fiction and nonfiction works--and the actual events from Doyle's childhood and early adulthood that served as frequent inspiration. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe authors offer answers to long-debated and mysterious questions, such as: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003e* From whom did Sherlock Holmes actually learn the art of detective work?\u003cbr\u003e * Why did Doyle kill off Sherlock Holmes--and how did the country of Japan inspire how he brought his famous detective back to life after nearly a decade?\u003cbr\u003e * What story elements did Doyle borrow from Robert Louis Stevenson's \u003ci\u003eTreasure Island\u003c\/i\u003e?\u003cbr\u003e * How did Doyle apply his fervent belief in Spiritualism to a variety of Holmes stories?\u003cbr\u003e * Who inspired Doyle to write about civil rights after a steamship journey in 1882?\u003cbr\u003e * How did the women in Doyle's life come to influence the relationships with women that both Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson have across sixty written adventures? \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDoyle's World\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into three sections. The first is dedicated to the elements--both good and bad--that comprised Doyle's childhood and early adult years, and how an assemblage of persons and places and things from his life found their way into his literature. The second section emphasizes the highly complex themes and plots present in the Sherlock Holmes adventures, while it also thoroughly examines some of Doyle's strengths--and weaknesses--as a public figure of his time. The Friedmans also reveal how Doyle was able to subtly incorporate his own political, social, and religious views--in particular, his passionate and often bewildering embrace of Spiritualism--into the Holmes stories. And in the third section, the authors offer two \"lost\" stories they uncovered that were written by Doyle under a pseudonym--accompanied by textual analysis with which they make their case. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is a work of rich detail and in-depth scholarship that should win over both established fans of Doyle and devoted \"Sherlockians\" everywhere--and that will engage, and \u003ci\u003eentertain\u003c\/i\u003e, all others who enter this intriguing hall of literary mirrors.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 344\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.18 x 8.9 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 16, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47642977042685,"sku":"9780757005367","price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/n3RscmMEml9780757005367.webp?v=1780527447","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/doyles-world-lost-found-the-unknown-histories-of-sherlock-holmes-and-sir-arthur-conan-doyle-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
