Autorenporträt

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was a British writer, most renowned for his detective fiction featuring the iconic character Sherlock Holmes. Educated at the Jesuit preparatory school Hodder Place, Stonyhurst, and later at Stonyhurst College, Doyle went on to study medicine at the University of Edinburgh, where he began crafting his narratives. His medical knowledge profoundly influenced his literary work, exemplified by the logical and forensic approach of Holmes. Doyle's oeuvre extends beyond detective stories; his historical novel 'Sir Nigel,' set during the Hundred Years' War, demonstrates his versatility and meticulous research in literature. Although overshadowed by the Sherlock Holmes canon, 'Sir Nigel' and works like 'The White Company' offer a vivid portrayal of the chivalric era, marked by Doyle's talent for creating compelling characters and rich historical contexts. Doyle's literary style combines clear, precise narration with an engaging storytelling technique, securing his position as one of the preeminent storytellers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His contributions to literature, along with his promotion of spiritualism and involvement in various social justice issues, reflect a man whose interests were as diverse as his writing portfolio.
