I read a wide range, so I also read a lot of detective stories. Before I came into contact with Holmes, I saw Conan and admired the detective inside. But after reading the story of Sherlock Holmes, I actually lost interest in other detective stories. This tall detective, with a hooked nose and a thin face, deeply attracted me and made me feel that detectives in other novels were simply idiots. I even imitated Sherlock Holmes' deductive method for reasoning, and won the reputation of "little detective" among my classmates. I was 15 years old.
Later, I don't know how many times I read The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. As time goes by, I gradually feel that my love for Sherlock Holmes is not simply because of his unparalleled detective skills. In this seemingly ruthless detective character, there is always a special charm that attracts me. So I began to explore the character Sherlock Holmes. In the process of research, I finally figured out why Holmes attracted me. That is a word "love". This strange and inhuman detective actually has unusual and hidden feelings.
Sherlock Holmes's "love" is first manifested in his sense of justice that is contrary to evil and the high sense of responsibility arising from it. I think everyone who has read The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes will agree with this. It is true that he makes money by handling cases, but he will never undertake a case with a little evil color. And if customers are found to have problems, they will not hesitate to bring them to justice (retired pigment dealers). In the face of a powerful and well-organized criminal group in moriarty, the leader of which has the same high wisdom as himself, Holmes has been dealing with it alone for many years. Apart from uncanny valley, he has never handled any cases related to this group, and no one insists on him. And he, out of a high sense of responsibility and justice for society, keeps a close eye on this group and never lets go of its flaws. All the difficulties, intimidation, threats and even assassinations did not scare him off, but strengthened his fighting spirit. His only powerful answer to moriarty's threat of mutual destruction is: "If I can guarantee to destroy you, then, for the benefit of society, even if I die with you, I am willing." This is just his declaration to all criminals and all criminal groups, down to the ground. In the face of such a proud and firm declaration, which criminal can not be frightened? In The Last Case, he also said to his close friend Watson, "If my life journey ends tonight, I can die with a clear conscience. Because of my existence, the air in London is very fresh. In the more than 1000 cases I have handled, I believe that I have never used my strength in the wrong place. " Because of this, when hearing the news of his death-the death of a fictional character in a fictional story, the British people will show real grief, so that they wear black veil to express their condolences. In their view, Holmes is not only a superb detective, but also the embodiment of justice. The tombstone of Conan Doyle, the author of Sherlock Holmes, is engraved with the words "as strong as steel and as straight as a sword". I think this is also the most appropriate evaluation of Sherlock Holmes by the British people.
Secondly, Holmes' "love" is also manifested in his kindness, generosity and selflessness. He doesn't want to be paid for handling cases, and his attitude towards handling cases will not be determined by the amount of compensation. On the contrary, for some prominent customers who can give rich returns but have low personality and intelligence, he invariably gives ruthless satire and ridicule, not afraid of offending. For some poor people, he is often generous and sometimes even handles cases for free. In handling cases, he used the convenient position of private detective to deal with various problems flexibly. Especially for those who have committed crimes (even killed people), but have no moral mistakes, or even uphold justice, he can make an exception without authorization. Such cases even account for a large proportion in books, such as The Devil's Heel and The Second Blood. If he were just a case-handling machine, he would never do such a thing. From this point of view, the seemingly heartless Sherlock Holmes is more human than the English law and the police in the Scottish factory. What's more, he never seeks fame and fortune in handling cases, and only smiles with tolerance at those "idiots" who record their credit in their credit books.
In addition, Holmes' "affection" is also reflected in his gentlemanly manner and chivalry. Holmes is a gentleman, both in appearance and spirit. It is not too much to define his character with "noble". He hates all meanness and filth. And although he doesn't like women, he has chivalrous spirit. He is not a lawyer, but a defender of justice. He can even break the law in order to protect justice or the dignity of a woman he doesn't know. His only two illegal acts were against women. In The Dignified Guest, in order to save Miss Melville who was seduced by the demon baron Gruna, he sneaked into the baron's study with injuries and stole the decisive diary. In Milton, in order to avoid the reputation of a noble woman, he risked being found, arrested and respected, ended in irreparable failure and humiliation, and even was at the mercy of the hateful Milton, committing illegal burglary again. He felt that "since it is morally justified, I have to consider only personal risks." If a lady is in urgent need of help, a gentleman should not think too much about personal safety. "This chivalrous spirit is rare even in Britain at the end of 19. When we read that Holmes threw bundles of blackmail letters into the fireplace. He did it again and again until the safe was empty. I believe that every reader will be moved by it. I think every reader with a sense of justice will cheer loudly when he sees that at the moment when he is about to be discovered, he still doesn't forget to throw that "bloody letter"-the only evidence that can be used to accuse the noble woman who killed the demon Milwalton!
In fact, if we carefully taste, Holmes' "feelings" are also manifested in many aspects, such as his loyal friendship with Watson (most obviously in three people with the same surname), his subtle and almost admirable feelings for Irene Adler, and even the excitement brought by official detective Lestrade's heartfelt praise to him in six busts of Napoleon (he even turned to hide his expression).
It is impossible for a pure reasoning machine to impress and conquer the critical heart of the British people. It is because of these emotional factors that Sherlock Holmes has become a living person and has always been loved by readers in Britain and even all over the world. It can be said that in Sherlock Holmes' personality charm, smart mind and rich emotion are its two core pillars, which are indispensable. Perhaps it is precisely because of the high precision of detective art that Holmes had to suppress his surging emotions to a minimum, which made his appearance look so cold and even inhuman. Even so, from him, we can still see that his lofty reason and great heart burst into touching emotional sparks from time to time in the collision. This has to make people guess, is there an emotional volcano buried in such a precise Sherlock Holmes? He once said with the devil's heel, "Watson, I have never been in love." However, if I have been in love, if the woman I love is in such a miserable situation, I may be like our lawless lion hunter (killing the person who framed my lover). Who knows? " This casual remark is enough to convince us that if a Mars ignites this buried volcano, it may erupt deeper and more violently than any active volcano in the world.
Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what?
Although Conan Doyle has achieved great success in writing detective stories, he is not satisfied with his success. His real dream is to become a historical novelist. So in 1893, he cruelly let Holmes die on the last difficult problem. Unexpectedly, obsessed British readers can't accept the bad news anyway. Thousands of London police, workers and citizens took to the streets with emotion, and a huge crowd marched in front of No.221Baker Street, shouting "Holmes, resurrection!" Over and over again. Slogan. This scene moved Conan Doyle to tears, so he had to revive Holmes again in the following story.
1. Anecdote about the author (I am interested, I hope you are interested)
Arthur conan doyle, an English novelist, has become one of the most important writers in the history of detective novels by portraying a successful detective character-Sherlock Holmes. In addition, he also wrote many other types of novels, such as science fiction, historical novels, love novels, plays, poems and so on.
Doyle 1890 went to Vienna to study ophthalmology and returned to London a year later to become an ophthalmologist, which gave him more time to write. Doyle wrote in his letter to his mother: "I am thinking of killing Sherlock Holmes ... I want to get rid of him and get rid of it." He takes up too much of my time. " 1893 12 In The Last Case, Doyle let Sherlock Holmes and his sworn enemy Professor moriarty die together at Lessingbach Falls. However, the ending of the novel makes readers very dissatisfied. After Holmes "died" in the last case, Fu Fan was very angry and often went to his house to do things like breaking windows. This made Doyle finally "resurrect" Sherlock Holmes. 1903, Doyle published The Empty House, which saved Sherlock Holmes from death.
Doyle himself was involved in two interesting cases. 1906 once, an anglo-Indian lawyer was accused of sending threatening letters and cruelty to animals. Although the animals were still abused after the lawyer was arrested, the police insisted that the lawyer was guilty. It is worth noting that after this case, the criminal appeal court was established in Britain, from 65438 to 0907. Therefore, it can be said that Moore not only helped lawyers, but also indirectly helped to establish a grievance appeal mechanism. On another occasion, in 1908, a German Jew who ran a casino was accused of attacking an 82-year-old woman with a stick.
In his later years, Doyle began to believe in spiritualism and even wrote several novels about it. Conan Doyle died on1July 7, 930.
