In this essay, the characterization of two characters, Harry Potter in “Harry Potter and the sorcerer’s stone” and Sherlock Holmes in “The Boscombe Valley Mystery” are the two heroes which would be analyzed. Their characterization would be discussed in two ways. Firstly, how their appearance presented. Secondly, how their actions, which the speech and thought are included, help to present the image of the heroic character. In my point of view, hero is a person who is outstanding with high…

In “The Adventure of the Speckled Band,” as Holmes and Watson are planning the investigation, Holmes throws a plethora of fear and suspense on Watson. “‘The matter is too serious for any hesitation. Your life may depend on your compliance’” (Doyle, The Adventure of the Speckled Band 14). Even though he causes paranoia in Watson, Holmes remains unchanged by the threat that is to come. After hunting out in Helen’s room for hours on end, there…

imaginable. Rather than play innocent about these dynamics, “Sherlock” mines them heavily, for humor and frisson. Yet for all the “Wait, are they actually gay?” gags, the show is admirably committed to something more serious: the notion of Sherlock/Watson as both True Detective and True…

the two works is that there was no mention of Laura Lyons and Mr. Frankland in the movie because there was no one playing those roles in the cast of the film. Laura Lyons and Mr. Frankland are a relevant part of the novel because on pages 162-167, Watson interrogates her and he finds out that she had a connection to Sir Charles.…

It was but a few years back when I met Sherlock Holmes. In our eighth grade year he was new to my school, he moved from Cambridge to Westminster, here, due to a change of his father's employer. I remember when I first saw Sherlock, his piercing blue eyes, high and prominent cheekbones, and his stiff, upright posture, he stood out so much as he still does. He walked into my homeroom on the first day of school, his unique looks distracting everyone from their conversations. Even with all eyes on…
