“O gato brasileiro (1898) é conto de Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) no qual temos uma curiosa ponte Brasil-Inglaterra, no século XIX. É narrado por Marshall King, sobrinho do rico Lord Southerton, de quem ele esperava herdar dinheiro suficiente para sustentar seu futuro. Mas o tio era mesquinho e ele tenta acesso ao seu sustento indo visitar no solar de Greylands, o primo desconhecido Everard King, que vai se revelar um lobo em pele de cordeiro, apesar de Marshall ouvir de todos muitos elogios para seus parentes. Acontece que o narrador é também mercenário e interesseiro. O primo tinha retornado recentemente do Brasil e morava numa propriedade extensa, na qual espalhou diversos animais exóticos trazidos do país tropical para a Inglaterra. Havia pássaros, cervo, javali, tatu e, o que ele chamava de jóia da coleção, o gato brasileiro, que media três metros e meio e ele comprou na região de selva na nascente do Rio Negro. O primo se demora para apresentá-lo o exemplar e seus hábitos, pois tem imenso encanto pelo gato brasileiro. Neste conto de Conan Doyle - que não há Sherlock Holmes em ação! -, evoca igualmente a necessidade dedutiva do leitor, para descobrir os passos de vilania que vão se desenrolando na história. O que move os dois homens é o dinheiro e poder. Um texto que permite contemplar um desenlace duvidoso da natureza humana.

“from Portsmouth at midday” [LAST]    The Portsmouth Library is home to the Arthur Conan Doyle Collection, largely made possible by the bequest of Richard Lancelyn Green. This world-renowned collection, the work of one of the foremost Doylean scholars, is a treasure trove for researchers, enthusiasts, and the public. The Collection preserves books, manuscripts, artifacts, and ephemera that illuminate Conan Doyle's life, his beloved Sherlock Holmes, and the cultural impact of his work. Laura Weston is the Education and Learning Officer for the Collection at the Portsmouth City Council, making the collection accessible and engaging to a global audience. Laura joins us to discuss the annual Worldwide Doyle conference, a series of virtual talks by writers, fans, and academics who are passionate about Conan Doyle and Sherlock Holmes. The program is taking place in June and July; all events take place at 7:00 pm BST and are free of charge, and will be available online. How does a city like Portsmouth turn a literary archive into a global attraction — and why does it matter? What behind-the-scenes choices shape the talks and exhibits that bring Sherlock Holmes to life for new audiences? Laura discusses all of this, including the unexpected item in the Collection that made even its curator stop and say, “I didn't see that coming.” So you can see what's coming, we share the full calendar of July in “The Learned Societies” segment. Madeline Quinones is back with “A Chance of Listening,” and the Canonical Couplet quiz tests your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with something from the vaults for the winner.

Une malédiction pèse sur les Baskerville, qui habitent le vieux manoir de leurs ancêtres, perdu au milieu d'une lande sauvage : quand un chien-démon, une bête immonde, gigantesque, surgit, c'est la mort. Le décès subit et tragique de Sir Charles Baskerville et les hurlements lugubres que l'on entend parfois venant du marais, le grand bourbier de Grimpen, accréditent la sinistre légende. Dès son arrivée à Londres, venant du Canada, Sir Henry Baskerville, seul héritier de Sir Charles, reçoit une lettre anonyme : « Si vous tenez à votre vie et à votre raison, éloignez-vous de la lande. » Malgré ces menaces, Sir Henry décide de se rendre à Baskerville Hall, accompagné de Sherlock Holmes et de son fidèle Watson.

“Sherlock Holmes: il primo criminologo”.

“Sherlock Holmes il primo criminologo”. Sherlock Holmes, personaggio nato dalla superba penna dello scrittore scozzese Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle, fu il primo detective nella storia della narrativa. Nel primo racconto “Uno studio in rosso” Sir. Conan Doyle mette in pratica le sue doti da criminalista. Da premettere che Doyle era un medico e, forse, a questo si deve per le doti dimostrate dal suo personaggio nel risolvere così brillantemente ogni indagine. Sherlock Holmes oltre che essere molto deduttivo, possiede conoscenze di botanica, anatomia, geologia, chimica, scherma, pugilato, cronaca nera e diritto. Com'è descritto in “Uno studio in rosso” lo storico incontro tra Watson e Holmes avviene nel 1881, in un laboratorio di chimica di un ospedale: “uno stanzone sottotetto ove si allineavano una miriade di flaconi”.  In quell'occasione, come racconta la giovane e brillante criminologa Beatrice Pecora nei suoi scritti, Holmes incontra per la prima volta il Dr. John Watson, che poi diverrà il proprio aiutante. Il detective mostra al suo assistente una sua nuova scoperta legata al riconoscimento del sangue compiendo così il suo primo gesto professionale da vero criminalista (!). - “Prendiamo del sangue fresco” disse, infilandosi un lungo spillone nel dito e aspirando qualche goccia di sangue con una pipetta. “Ora, aggiungo questo poco sangue a un litro d'acqua. Come vede, il liquido che ne risulta conserva l'aspetto di acqua pura. La percentuale del sangue non è certo maggiore di uno a un milione. Eppure, sono sicurissimo che otterremo la reazione caratteristica”.  Mentre parlava, gettava nel recipiente alcuni cristalli bianchi, aggiungendo poi qualche goccia di un liquido trasparente. In un attimo il contenuto del recipiente assunse un color mogano opaco e un sedimento brunastro precipitò sul fondo. Gli scienziati si sono chiesti se questo test fosse solo una finzione letteraria di Conan Doyle o fosse scientificamente fondato. Per rispondere a questa domanda dobbiamo fare un passo indietro. Prima del 1875 vi era un esame microscopico dei globuli rossi che distingueva tra mammiferi e non, dal test dell'ematina e dal test dell'ammoniaca.  Inoltre Holmes cita altresì il test del guaiaco o meglio chiamato del sangue occulto. Esso consiste in una soluzione idroalcolica di resina vegetale, alla quale viene aggiunta una piccola quantità del presunto sangue e dell'acqua ossigenata. Se il materiale è sangue, compare una colorazione blu.  La maggior parte dei test per il sangue si basano sullo stesso principio: la perossidasi, una grande famiglia di enzimi del sangue che agiscono come catalizzatore grazie all'ossidazione di un composto chimico, come l'acido acetico o il propionico, che produce un colore caratteristico. I cristalli chiari potrebbero essere degli ossidanti come perossido o perborato di sodio. In nessun altro racconto Sherlock parla di esami chimici: più che altro si attiene a dare soluzioni sui casi giudiziari grazie al suo intuito e alla buona osservazione della scena del crimine.  Mr. Holmes diverrà così un investigatore più che un criminalista esperto in chimica. Post Scriptum: nei romanzi che raccontano le gesta di Sherlock Holmes della frase “Elementare, Watson!”, in realtà non c'è traccia. Solo in una pagina della raccolta: “Le memorie di Sherlock Holmes” e, più precisamente nel racconto: “L'uomo deforme”, Holmes, rispondendo a una domanda di Watson, pronuncia il termine: “Elementare!”. Espressione che utilizza appena due volte nel racconto “Uno studio in rosso”.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/accademia-di-criminologia--1771463/support.

This episode, we welcome to the podcast journalist and author Andrew Finkel to talk about his debut novel The Adventure of the Second Wife (2024), a multi-layered mystery in which an avid Sherlockian investigate a missing Sherlock Holmes story… About Andrew Finkel Based for many years in Istanbul, Andrew Finkel has corresponded for international media including The Times, The Economist, TIME, CNN and for the Latitude section of The New York Times. He is also a contributing editor and restaurant critic for Cornucopia Magazine. His articles, editorials and broadcast commentaries have appeared in an equal variety of media that includes The Washington Post, The Guardian, Observer, Financial Times, The Art Newspaper, The Spectator and the BBC. His experiences of working in the Turkish language press, in newsrooms, as a columnist and on television, prompted him some ten years ago to co-found Platform24 (P24) a human rights NGO that supports independent journalism and free expression. Among its projects is the popular Kıraathane, the Istanbul Literature House. He is the author of scholarly articles on press capture and media integrity as well as the Oxford University Press handbook, Turkey, What Everyone Needs to Know. His recently published debut novel The Adventure of the Second Wife revolves around the well-documented obsession which Abdülhamid II, the last great Ottoman Sultan, had for the stories of Sherlock Holmes. The Adventure of the Second Wife (Even Keel Press, 2024) Strange that Abdülhamid II, the last great Ottoman Sultan, would have Sherlock Holmes stories read to him before he went to sleep. Even stranger is that his obsession helped change the course of history. The explanation lies in the mystery of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's dying words, that the one Sherlock adventure still to intrigue him was that of ‘The Second Wife'. For no such story exists… Or does it? The Adventure of the Second Wife is the debut novel of renowned journalist Andrew Finkel – a clever, compelling mystery about a Sherlock Holmes enthusiast who with the help of a brilliant Turkish professor, tries to solve the enigma of Arthur Conan Doyle's dying words only to upend his life in the process. Purchase from Cornucopia Press here. Next time on Doings of Doyle We head back into Gothic territory with ‘The Man from Archangel' (1885), claimed to be one of Conan Doyle's favourite stories.

When the writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle killed off his most famous literary creation, Sherlock Holmes, readers were so angry that thousands cancelled their subscriptions to the magazine in which the stories appeared. The editor and Conan Doyle himself were overwhelmed with letters from a furious public - fans who instead of accepting the death of their favourite fictional character then started to write and share their own stories featuring Holmes. They eventually formed clubs and appreciation societies, brought together by a common interest.This practice is something we recognise today across the globe. In areas as diverse as sport, music, film and TV (to mention just a few), fans are not just passive consumers as the recent activities of Swifties (Taylor Swift fans) demonstrate. They're actively engaged, creating content of their own and connecting with others to nurture a shared identity. The internet has made that easier than ever before, with fans now using their platform to influence political discourse too.Iszi Lawrence discusses the history and inexorable rise of fandom, with guests Paul Booth, Professor of  Media and Pop Culture at DePaul University in Chicago in the United States; Areum Jeong, Assistant Professor of Korean Studies at Arizona State University in the US and Corin Throsby from the University of Cambridge in the UK, whose research focuses on Romantic literature and early celebrity culture. The programme also includes contributions from Julian Wamble, Assistant Professor of Political Science at George Washington University and the creator of Critical Magic Theory: An Analytical Harry Potter Podcast, and listeners around the world share their fan stories.Produced by Fiona Clampin for the BBC World Service.(Photo: Fans wait to pay for items of merchandise as they visit a pop-up store of South Korean K-pop sensation BTS.
