Book Synopsis Morality and the Law in British Detective and Spy Fiction, 1880-1920 by : Kate Morrison
Download or read book Morality and the Law in British Detective and Spy Fiction, 1880-1920 written by Kate Morrison and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who decides what is right or wrong, ethical or immoral, just or unjust? In the world of crime and spy fiction between 1880 and 1920, the boundaries of the law were blurred and justice called into question humanity's moral code. As fictional detectives mutated into spies near the turn of the century, the waning influence of morality on decision-making signaled a shift in behavior from idealistic principles towards a pragmatic outlook taken in the national interest. Taking a fresh approach to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's popular protagonist, Sherlock Holmes, this book examines how Holmes and his rival maverick literary detectives and spies manipulated the law to deliver a fairer form of justice than that ordained by parliament. Multidisciplinary, this work views detective fiction through the lenses of law, moral philosophy, and history, and incorporates issues of gender, equality, and race. By studying popular publications of the time, it provides a glimpse into public attitudes towards crime and morality and how those shifting opinions helped reconstruct the hero in a new image.

Book Synopsis Romances from a Detective’s Case-book, by ‘Dick Donovan’ by : Bruce Durie
Download or read book Romances from a Detective’s Case-book, by ‘Dick Donovan’ written by Bruce Durie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-03-16 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains four hard to find and rarely-collected stories by 'Dick Donovan' (JEP Muddock), originally printed in Strand in July, August, September and November 1892, between the 1st and 2nd series of Conan Doyle's adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Also reproduced here is Grant Allen's October 1892 tale, 'The Great Ruby Robbery'. An appreciation of that worthy man, Muddock, for whom the bald term "writer" is wholly inadequate, is included. There are brief sketches of the artists Paul Hardy, who illustrated the Strand Donovan stories, and Sidney Paget, who drew for Grant Allen's yarn, but better known as the accidental illustrator of the Holmes stories (Strand really wanted his brother Walter for that task - see p. 143). The layout of this book differs from that of the original Strand publications, but the typographical conventions of the day have been largely adhered to, even if they look antiquated or simply wrong by today's rules. A few errors have been corrected. Edited by Bruce Durie

This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chronicles of Michael Danevitch of the Russian Secret Service One winter night of that memorable year, I was on my way from Paris to London via Calais. It had been a wild and stormy day; a high wind, bitter cold, snow, sleet, hail, rain - such were the atmospheric conditions. We had had an assortment of the worst samples of weather, and as night approached it was only too evident we were in for a buster.' There were very few passengers by the night train from Paris. It was not a night when anyone was likely to be travelling for pleasure. On our reaching Calais Station the wind had attained the force of a heavy gale, causing a tremendous sea to run in the Channel, and we who were pressed for time heard with dismay that the boat was not likely to attempt the crossing before the morning.

Book excerpt: The appearance of Sherlock Holmes in The Strand Magazine in 1891 began a stampede of writers who wanted to emulate, build upon or even satirize Arthur Conan Doyle's work. This book explores the development of detective fiction during the critical period between Conan Doyle's creation of Holmes and the advent of the Golden Age of the detective story during World War I.
