Sherlock Holmes: Trifles

• The Sherlock Holmes We Never Knew

  "and actor and a rare one" [SIGN]  The monthly feature of Morley-Montgomery Award-winning articles continues apace, when we share these top-notch pieces of Sherlockian scholarship from the pages of The Baker Street Journal.    This episode is from S.E. Dahlinger's truly remarkable 1999 article "The Sherlock Holmes We Never Knew," which gives us a better understanding of William Gillette and the play that made him a household name (and a fortune). It's a large article and a very significant Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected].

• The Tall Man

  "I have never seen so tall a man" [SIGN]  Our series on the Apocrypha of Sherlock Holmes continues on, with a slightly different entry this time. Previous examples have been fully developed stories; this is simply a story outline.   How it surfaced is just as interesting as the outline itself, perhaps more. The reader/listener will be left to decide if this could have made a full-blown story. Ultimately, it's just a Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected].

• Paddington vs. Waterloo

  "proceed to Waterloo" [HOUN]  For those looking to travel from London west to Dartmoor (particularly those interested in stopping at Coombe Tracey), you might do well to do as Dr. Watson did and meet Sir Henry Baskerville at Paddington Station.   One small thing, though: there's another station that will get you our west. And if you're another character, you might fancy that. Why? It's just a Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected].

• T.S. Eliot and the Great Grimpen Mire

  "so subtly influenced by it" [STUD]  It is well known that T.S. Eliot lifted lines from "The Musgrave Ritual" and appropriated them for Murder in the Cathedral, as well as found inspiration for Macavity in the Napoleon of crime.   In this "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the Theorist" episode, Don Hardenbrook, BSI ("Huret, the Boulevard Assassin") found a deeper meaning in Four Quartets, a collection of four interlinked poems by Eliot. One that echoes of The Hound of the Baskervilles. And it's just a Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at [email protected].

• The Moor as a Character

  "a huge expanse" [HOUN]  Credit: Wikimedia Commons CC BY-SA 4.0  There are four main characters in The Hound of the Baskervilles: Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, the hound, and the moor. [Record scratch SFX]   Yes, the moor. Inspired by a clip from an old IHOSE episode, we explore why this ever-present setting looms large in the story, both when it's explicitly mentioned and when it's not.
