Arthur Conan-Doyle

Forfatterbiografi

Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) var en britisk forfatter fra Skotland, kendt som skaberen af Sherlock Holmes. Han skrev først og fremmest kriminal- og detektivfiktion, men virkede også i andre genrer som historiske fortællinger, science fiction og eventyr. Gennem Holmes-universet blev Doyle en central stemme i sin tids populære litteratur og bidrog til at forme læserens forventning til den moderne, undersøgelsesbaserede kriminalhistorie. Samlingen The Return of Sherlock Holmes (1905) rummer 13 nye historier, der oprindeligt blev publiceret i perioder i The Strand Magazine og senere udgivet som bog. Doyles internationale gennembrud og langvarige betydning ses også af, at han blev officielt hædret: han blev knyttet til det britiske riddervæsen ved at blive slået til ridder i 1902. Hans navn er siden blevet en del af litteraturhistorien som synonym med klassisk detektivfortælling, og Sherlock Holmes-canonens vedblivende relevans har gjort Doyle til en af de mest indflydelsesrige fortællere i genrens udvikling.
