Topic: Sherlockiana


  
  Sherlockiana
The word "Sherlockiana" encompasses memorabilia, ephemera and collectibles associated with the fictional character Sherlock Holmes and, by extension, the fictional Dr. Watson and the very real Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
With Sherlock Holmes having so many devoted fans for many decades, it is perhaps not surprising that there is a great deal of Sherlockiana to tempt the would-be collector, and it would be a daunting and impractical task to list every Holmes-related item in existence.
Nor would the exercise be to much purpose, since the collector of Sherlockiana needs guidance more than he (and, sometimes, she) needs a laundry list of souvenirs.

This is a field [Sherlockiana] in which all credentials, and especially impeccable ones, are suspect.
It seems significant, then, that Sherlockiana originates at the very moment of the professionalization of academic literary criticism, when, as Claudia Johnson shows, a new class of bourgeois professional academics was violently wresting hermeneutic control over English literature from the literary genteel Janeites and their ilk.
Despite the Sherlockians' disclaimers, the mixture of reverence and playfulness, transgression and celebration, in Sherlockiana is in many ways more closely aligned with the activities of more recent media fans than with the belletristic elite.

 PROGETTO BABELE - IL SITO
La chiusura di una libreria è un lutto multiplo, una catastrofe che coinvolge tutti i lettori che a lei facevano visita con metodica periodicità e che ad ognuno di loro toglie una sorgente di amicizie reali e cartacee.
Pertanto, vogliamo informarvi che, chi volesse dare una mano a Tecla Dozio a sanare il debito con il Comune di Milano può farlo inviando un contributo in denaro su di un conto aperto presso la filiale di Milano della Banca Etica (i dati del c/c sono riportati in fondo all'articolo).
Chi non avesse la possibilità di compiere un atto così nobile, può comunque dare il proprio contributo facendo visita alla libreria Sherlockiana, acquistando i suoi libri e magari diffondendo questa richiesta di aiuto.

On the other hand, in the field of Sherlockiana, it is over-imported, because of high wall of language.
We study the English language for three years in junior high school, and three more years in high school, but there are only a few people who can speak or read English.
These communications will accelerate the growth of Japanese Sherlockiana, and I hope western Sherlockians also will be interested in our activity.

La Sherlockiana, classico esempio di libreria a misura di lettore, potrebbe abbassare la serranda da un momento all'altro, a causa di un debito con il Comune di Milano.
Tutti questi autori considerano la Sherlockiana una casa, una scuola di formazione, un punto di riferimento: nessuno accetta l'idea di una chiusura, per motivi d'ordine economico e aziendale.
LA STORIA - Nata nel 1985 a Milano, in piazza San Nazaro in Brolo, la Sherlockiana fu salvata per la prima volta nel 1992, quando l'allora dipendente Tecla Dozio ne ha rilevato le quote.

 The View from Sherlock Peoria 46
On one side, Sherlockians might gafiate from sheer over-exposure, on the other, they might just wander off, being more easily distracted from "just a hobby." And any conflict so over-wrought that inspires someone to cry out "Sherlockiana is just a ding-dang hobby!" is liable to inspire gafiation as well.
Sherlockiana has both sorts, just like any other fandom.
One, from a neophyte Sherlockian looking for a point of entry into Sherlockian society, observed that Sherlockiana seemed clannish and almost closed to the casual outsider.

 Sherlockiana - Miscellaneous
There is no end to the sort of miscellaneous Sherlockiana one may unearth and add to one's collection.
Until I'd come across it, I never knew that there had once been Sherlock Holmes cigars, though it makes sense, as Holmes was the Victorian equivalent of a poster boy for tobacco consumption.
Here's a brief listing of some other miscellaneous Sherlockiana of interest to collectors, probably more readily obtainable than the above item, which I'm guessing would have to be sought out at flea markets and the like:

 Validity of Interpretation in Sherlockiana
There are three books in Sherlockiana which are infamous for applying literary criticism and analysis of sexual imagery to the canon: Samuel Rosenberg's Naked is the Best Disguise, Christopher Redmond's In Bed with Sherlock Holmes, and Michael Atkinson's The Secret Marriage of Sherlock Holmes and Other Eccentric Readings.
Sherlockian purists defend the canon from what they see as radical and outrageous interpretations arising out of the modern schools of criticism--deconstruction, structuralism, post-structuralism, Freudian analysis.
Revisionists, on the other hand, save Sherlockiana from going stale and dying out.

 The View from the East End 6
These are probably best reserved for later, after the beginning Sherlockian has obtained a thorough grounding in our beloved Canon, or the "Sacred Writings of Doctor Watson"."Apocrypha" refers to Sherlock Holmes stories outside of the Canon purportedly written by A. Conan Doyle, and "pastiche" refers to Sherlock Holmes stories written by others.
I recently became aware of a more recent book entitled Encyclopedia Sherlockiana: an A-Z Guide to the World of the Great Detective by Matthew E. Bunson on Amazon.com If you can’t find either Tracy’s or Clarkson’s books, this one may be the way to go.
In addition, please let me state that I have no financial connection or interest with any of these works, so my opinion is indeed honest and impartial.

 The View from the East End 22
And when I had read that Christopher Morley was the American pioneer of what we today know and love as "Sherlockiana", it just made sense for me to go back and determine what was so important about him, and to convey this information to the newer Sherlockians out there.
There are many, many websites devoted to his biography, and I will list some of them at the end of this piece.
I try to remember and live by some of these gems as I continue to meander through, and labour in, the fields of Sherlockiana.
