This book of interdisciplinary essays serves to situate the
original Sherlock Holmes, and his various adaptations, in a
contemporary cultural context. This collection is prompted by three
main and related questions: firstly, why is Sherlock Holmes such an
enduring and ubiquitous cultural icon; secondly, why is it that
Sherlock Holmes, nearly 130 years after his birth, is enjoying such
a spectacular renaissance; and, thirdly, what sort of communities,
imagined or otherwise, have arisen around this figure since the
most recent resurrections of Sherlock Holmes by popular media?
Covering various media and genres (TV, film, literature, theatre)
and scholarly approaches, this comprehensive collection offers
cogent answers to these questions.
