The essays in this revised and expanded volume explore a variety of
structuring taxonomies, the relationships between the aesthetic
forms, styles and methodologies of detective and crime fiction in
the late-Victorian and Edwardian period. The influences on the
artists in the genre are as varied as the interests of the period
in scientific method, forensics, archaeology, aesthetics, medicine,
and the paranormal. But the formalising tendencies of investigative
process remain, and it is this adherence, in artist and detective
alike, to seeing crime and its resolution as a stylistic imposition
of structure on disorder that is under examination.
