From his 1887 literary debut to his many film and television
adaptations, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes has lost none
of his appeal. Besides Holmes himself, no character in Conan
Doyle's stories proves as interesting as the astute detective's
constant companion, Dr. Watson, who somehow seems both superfluous
and essential. While Conan Doyle does not depict Holmes and Watson
as equals, he avoids presenting Watson as incompetent, as he was
made to appear on screen for decades. A variety of reimagined
Holmeses and Watsons in recent years have depicted their
relationship as more nuanced and complementary. Focusing on the Guy
Ritchie films, the BBC's Sherlock and CBS's Elementary, this
collection of new essays explores the ideas and implications behind
these adaptations.
