Vollständig überarbeitete, korrigierte und illustrierte Fassung Mit 36 Illustrationen Wie kann man Sherlock Holmes nicht kennen? Den berühmtesten Detektiv der Geschichte, der mit seinem messerscharfen Verstand und seiner Ermittlungsart als Vorlage für fast alle kriminalistischen Nachfolger diente. Hier lernen Sie das lesenswerte Original kennen. Dieser Band beinhaltet folgende Kurzgeschichten: - "Im leeren Hause" ("The Empty House") - "Der Baumeister von Norwood" ("The Norwood Builder") - "Das gelbe Gesicht" ("The Yellow Face") - "Der griechische Dolmetscher" ("The Greek Interpreter") - "Sein erster Fall" ("The Gloria Scott") - "Der goldene Zwicker" ("The Golden Pince-Nez") - "Die einsame Radfahrerin" ("The Solitary Cyclist") "Wie weißt du aber, dass Vererbung vorliegt?" "Weil mein Bruder Mycroft die gleiche Gabe in höherem Grade besitzt als ich." Das war in der Tat etwas Neues für mich. Wenn es noch einen so eigentümlich veranlagten Mann in England gab, warum hatten weder Polizei noch Publikum etwas von ihm gehört? So fragte ich und fügte andeutend hinzu, es sei nur die Bescheidenheit meines Freundes, die ihn die Überlegenheit seines Bruders anerkennen lasse. Holmes lachte über diese Vermutung. "Mein lieber Watson", sagte er. "Ich protestiere dagegen, dass man die Bescheidenheit zu den Tugenden rechnet. Dem strengen Denker sollte alles genau so erscheinen, wie es in Wirklichkeit ist, und die Selbstunterschätzung ist ebenso eine Abweichung von der Wahrheit wie die Übertreibung des eigenen Könnens. Wenn ich also sage, Mycroft besitzt ein besseres Beobachtungsvermögen als ich, so kannst du ruhig annehmen, ich rede die genaue und buchstäbliche Wahrheit." Null Papier Verlag www.null-papier.de

Since his first appearance in Beeton’s Christmas Annual in 1887, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes has been one of the most beloved fictional characters ever created. Now, in two paperback volumes, Bantam presents all fifty-six short stories and four novels featuring Conan Doyle’s classic hero--a truly complete collection of Sherlock Holmes’s adventures in crime! Volume I includes the early novel A Study in Scarlet, which introduced the eccentric genius of Sherlock Holmes to the world. This baffling murder mystery, with the cryptic word Rache written in blood, first brought Holmes together with Dr. John Watson. Next, The Sign of Four presents Holmes’s famous “seven percent solution” and the strange puzzle of Mary Morstan in the quintessential locked-room mystery. Also included are Holmes’s feats of extraordinary detection in such famous cases as the chilling “ The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” the baffling riddle of “The Musgrave Ritual,” and the ingeniously plotted “The Five Orange Pips,” tales that bring to life a Victorian England of horse-drawn cabs, fogs, and the famous lodgings at 221B Baker Street, where Sherlock Holmes earned his undisputed reputation as the greatest fictional detective of all time.

What is an image? How can we describe the experience of looking at images, and how do they become meaningful to us? In what sense are images like or unlike propositions? Participants of the 33rd International Wittgenstein Symposium--philosophers as well as historians of art, science, and literature--provide many stimulating answers. Some of the contributions are dedicated to Wittgenstein’s thoughts on images while others testify to the important role notions coined or inspired by Wittgenstein--“seeing as”, “picture games” and the dichotomy of “saying and showing”--play in the field of picture theory today. This first volume of the Proceedings of the 2010 conference addresses readers interested in the history and theory of images, and in the philosophy of Wittgenstein.
