Know the man behind our favorite detective Sherlock Holmes- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
1.We have seen many novels and movies associated with Sherlock Holmes, which were not only known in Britain but also throughout the world. It would be wonderful to know that Sherlock Holmes was not a genuine character but was a fictional character created by Arthur Conan Doyle, who touched the new zeitgeist in the field of detection. Think now, the person who gave life to the characters like Sherlock Holmes, how big a detective would be. Arthur Conan Doyle was a British writer and physicist, with many compositions including Sherlock Holmes screaming abroad. He had lived many fictional mysterious characters through his novels.
2.Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 in Edinburgh district of Scotland. His father's name was Charles Dial and the mother's name was Mary. Arthur's parents were married in 1855, but due to the habit of Charles's alcoholism, his family split in 1864, which was later back in 1867. Arthur's father died in 1893, which was going through an incurable disease for a long time. After the death of Arthur's father, his wealthy uncles helped him, and at the age of 9, he was admitted to a well-known school in Scotland. After that, he studied at Stonyhurst College until 1875 and then studied in the Jesuit school Stella Matutina of Austria.
3.From 1876 to 1881, he studied medicine at Arthur University of Edinburgh Medical School. The income from medical practice was not enough, so he started writing too. The writing was so successful that he adopted it only in full time. He started writing short stories during his medical studies. His first novel was "The Haunted Grange of Goresthorpe", which was sent to print in Blackwood's Magazine but he was not approved.
4.Arthur's first published novel was "The Mystery of Sasassa Valley" which was published on 6th September 1879 in Chambers's Edinburgh Journal. His first academy article was "Gelsemium as a Poison", which was printed in the British Medical Journal.In 1880, Arthur began working as a doctor in Peterhead's Greenland whaler Hope, and after graduation in 1881, he got the job of ship's surgeon during his visit to the West African coast.
5.Because of his medical profession, he got many opportunities to travel abroad. He studied the various traditions and cultures of that place and he wrote them in his novels. In 1882, Arthur started practicing medical practice with his old friend, but later due to controversy, he started doing independent practice. He failed with his medical profession and for this reason, he started paying more attention to his writing.
6.In the 1887 Christmas book of Beeton's Christmas Annual, his article "Sherlock Holmes" was published by A Study in Scarlet. He was given 25 pounds for this story. The author enthusiastically planned to write the entire novel and the whole thing came out two years later. In 1891, he presented a complete series of stories for "The Strand Magazine". Even after getting so popular he wanted to go ahead with English literature. In 1893, he tried to get out of his writing by showing his beloved character Holmes dead, but on the request of the reader a new twist was brought in the story and Holmes returned.
7.Arthur also wrote novels on topics other than espionage, including The Tragedy of the Korosko, Rodney Stone, and the Last World. He wrote several books and texts besides this. He died due to cardiac arrest in 1930. Even after his death, his famous novel "Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" is alive in the hearts of people today.
