Arthur Conan Doyle Biography British writer, creator of the subtle, hawkeyed Sherlock Holmes, the best-known detective in literature, his friend and foil Doctor Watson, and the malevolent Moriarty, the classic evil genius. Sherlock Holmes stories have been translated into more than fifty languages, and have been adapted as plays, films, radio and television series, a musical comedy, a ballet, cartoons, comic books, and advertisement. By 1920 Doyle was one of the most highly paid writers in the world. Doyle was born at Picardy Place, Edinburgh, as the son of Charles Altamont Doyle, a civil servant in the Edinburgh Office of Works, and Mary (Foley) Doyle. His father suffered from epilepsy and was eventually institutionalized. Both of his parents were Roman Catholics and Doyle was educated in Jesuit schools. He studied then at Edinburgh University and qualified as doctor in 1885. After graduation, Doyle practiced medicine as an eye specialist at Southsea near Porsmouth in Hampshire until 1891 when he became full time writer. First story about Holmes, A STUDY IN SCARLET, was published in 1887 in 'Beeton Christmas Annual.'. The novel, written in three weeks in 1886, introduced the detective and his associate, who live at Mrs. Hudson's house, 221B Baker Street, London. During the South African war (1899-1902) Doyle served for a few months as senior physician at a field hospital, and wrote THE WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA, in which he took the imperialistic view. In 1900 and 1906 he ran unsuccessfully for Parliament. Doyle was knighted in 1902. After the death of his son from wounds incurred in World War I, Conan Doyle dedicated himself in spiritualistic studies. An example of these is THE COMING OF FAIRIES, in which he supported the existence of "little people" and spent more than a million dollars on their cause. He became also president of several important spiritualist organizations. - Doyle died on July 7, 1930 from heart disease at his home, Windlesham, Sussex. His main focus of his work is suspect and thriller stories.

sir arthur conan doyle In 1855, Charles Altamont and Mary Foley Doyle were married. Four years later, on May 22, 1859, Mary gave birth to Arthur Conan Doyle in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was one of ten children, of which seven survived to adulthood. The Doyle family were Catholic with roots in Ireland. Arthur's father was a civil servant most of his life, working for the Edinburgh Office of Works. Arthur's mother ran a boarding house. Arthur entered Hodder Prep, a Jesuit-run school, in 1868. Two years later, he moved to Stonyhurst public school, another Jesuit-run educational institution. At Stonyhurst, he was noted for his untidiness and his determination to go his own way. His nature responded to kindness and rebelled against threats. Arthur spent a good portion of his time in the headmaster's office. The only suggestion of a literary nature during this time was a year spent as editor of the Stonyhurst school magazine. In 1874, Arthur took and passed his university matriculation exam. Before entering Edinburgh University in 1876, he spent a year at a Jesuit school in Austria brushing up on his German. A lack of money during school required him to take outside jobs to earn money for tuition. During the summer of 1878, he worked with a doctor in general practice.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle "This is indeed a mystery,' I remarked. 'What do you imagine that it means?" " I have no data yet. It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts..." (from A SCANDAL IN BOHEMIA, 1891) The first story about Sherlock Holmes, A STUDY IN SCARLET, was published in 1887 in Beeton Christmas Annual . The novel was written in three weeks in 1886. It introduced the detective and his associate and friend, Dr. Watson, and made famous Holmes' address at Mrs. Hudson's house, 221B Baker Street, London. Their major opponent was the malevolent Moriarty, the classic evil genius who was a kind of doppelgänger of Holmes, and the beautiful opera singer Irene Adler, who also caused much trouble for Holmes. Sherlock Holmes' roots were threefold. His literary forefather was Edgar Allan Poe's detective C. Auguste Dupin. A person known to Doyle, Joseph Bell, a teacher in the University of Edinburgh, served as another model, as well as Eugène Francois Vidoq, a former criminal, who became the first chief of the Sûreté on the principle of 'set a thief to catch a thief '. The second Sherlock Holmes story, THE SIGN OF THE FOUR, was written for Lippincott's magazine. THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES started to appear in the

Arthur Conan Doyle was born in Edinburgh on 22 May 1859. His mother, Mary, was of Irish extraction and traced her ancestry back to the famous Percy family of Northumberland and from there to the Plantagenet line. It is little wonder that the young Conan Doyle was told tales steeped in history which were to stand him in good stead when, in later years, he was to write his famous historical novels, The White Company Sir Nigel , and Micah Clarke The Chronicles of England ; Henry became manager of the National Gallery in Dublin; and Richard became famous as an artist, most well-known, perhaps, for his cover design for

While Edgar Allan Poe may have invented the detective story with "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and the mystery detective with Auguste Dupin, it was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Holmes that popularized mystery fiction, making it one of the great literary genres of modern times.

Arthur Conan Doyle Født i Edinburgh 22 Maj 1859 - død 7. juli 1930 i Windlesham, Sussex Søn af maleren og tegneren Charles Altamont Doyle og Mary Foley. Begge forældrene tilhørte den romerske katolske kirke, og som følge heraf blev han uddannet i jesuitiske skoler. Denne skolegang fik ham til at miste sin tro, men havde samtidig en dyb og varig indflydelse på hans psykiske udvikling. I 1879 fik han udgivet sin første fortælling, The Mystery of the Sasassa Valley. 1884 giftede han sig med en vis Louise Hawkins, og året efter færdiggjorde han sin uddannelse som læge. Derefter åbnede han en praksis som øjenspecialist, og supplerede sine indkomster som læge ved at skrive romaner og noveller. I 1891 opgav han sin praksis og helligede sig helt skribentvirksomheden. 1902 blev han adlet. 1906 døde Louise og året efter giftede han sig igen med Jean Leckie, som han havde haft et forhold til gennem ti år. Hans ubetinget største succes er de mange noveller og romaner om privatdetektiven Sherlock Holmes og hans ven dr. Watson. Men Doyle skrev meget andet: En del fortællinger fra Napoleonstiden, der fascinerede ham meget, hvori den stortalende oberst Gerard har hovedrollen i de fleste; en lille serie på fire om en vis kaptajn Sharkey, et antal historiske romaner, "gotiske" noveller; samt essays og faglitteratur om forskellige emner. På sine ældre dage blev Doyle mere og mere overbevist spiritist - han erklærede sig offentligt som sådan i 1918 - og brugte al sin tid på at propagandere for dette emne. En stor del af de bøger han skrev i 1920'erne er faglitterære studier over emner som spiritisme, åndefotografering og feer.

Draw Me A Picture We all know what Sherlock Holmes looks like, and we have our favorite images of him. But when Sir Arthur Conan Doyle sold A Study in Scarlet for Beeton’s Christmas Annual (sold in 1886 but not published until 1887), the detective existed just in words (and only a few had read those yet!). The first artist chosen to draw Holmes would create an image that would last forever. There were no plays, movies or television shows to compete with. The sketches created for this first story would shape the public perception of Sherlock Holmes for as long as he was remembered. Balderdash! The early drawings of the master sleuth weren’t particularly good and are forgotten by most today. However, many of the illustrations that followed were quite good, and some of them did play a lasting role in how we view Sherlock Holmes, even today. Let’s take a look at some of the men who drew him. False Start – Five Yards D.H. Friston A Study in Scarlet . His four pictures, two of which feature Holmes, are less than inspiring. One picture shows a good look at Holmes wearing a long overcoat and sporting sideburns. Unfortunately, if he weren’t holding a magnifying glass up to the wall, it’s unlikely you would know that it was Sherlock Holmes. We weren’t off to a running start, but the next drawings would actually send us backwards. D.H. Friston’s first profile of Sherlock Holmes in Beeton’s Christmas Annual, 1887.
