Then hopefully you'll hit the ball right back ;-) I'll argue in the spirit and approximate style of Knox (more like the basic approach than the style, because there's no need to pastiche) but while using the cutting edge critical methods of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars (and the only engaging one), Prof. Bart T. Ehrman, UNC Chapel Hill, who is himself an atheist. That paper's only a twinkle in my eye right now, but the research and outline have been mostly done for quite some time. It's just been lounging on my computer. I have a long list of projects to get back to, but if I were ever properly incentivized, I could probably reshuffle my priorities ;) Really, there are at least a few hardcore geeks out there, carrying the torch. Biblical criticism is fascinatingly intricate but still great fun once you've been introduced. Sidgewick's "chronological analysis" is piddling child's play in comparison.

I'd sit in the corner and the red leather bench and nurse myself an iced tea, which was what Giono called a highball in Prohibition. That little dim passage led out to the street. Summer days the front door stood open though of course the iron gate was locked to keep out snoopers. You had to ring a special bell that looked like it was meant for some apartment upstairs, there was even a card for 'Mr. M. A. Kenealy' who was imaginary. Giono made up the name, he was proud of it; he said the M. A. stood for Marcantonio. Anyway when you ran three time for Mr. Kenealy a buzzer sounded back of the bar and Giono knew you were O.K."<br /><br />It's my understanding that Cella dispensed with subterfuge and anyone who was thirsty just hobbled into his establishment. Perhaps Thucydides could set me straight on that.<br /><br />In summary, Kitty Foyle is a fine old fashioned read, but with very little for the Sherlockian to draw upon.<br /><br />John LehmanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666460186096679676.post-5976631108802992392010-08-30T10:57:42.419-07:002010-08-30T10:57:42.419-07:00and I am wrong on their wanting to sue Sumner if t...and I am wrong on their wanting to sue Sumner if the book were seized.

As boys, for example, they wrote a letter to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, denouncing inconsistencies in the Sherlock Holmes stories and including five dried orange pips, in allusion to the threatening letter in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Later, Ronald Knox expanded the joke into an essay called "Studies in the Literature of Sherlock Holmes", a parody of Biblical scholarship in which he pretended to detect, from careful study of the text, that some of the stories must be fictitious inventions by a drunken Watson. Conan Doyle was delighted by the spoof and wrote to Ronald Knox to thank him.<br /><br />Nowadays we're rather more sensitive.

However, he faces one basic problem in trying to prove that the Knox essay was the basis for Sherlockian scholarship. The essay is simply not scholarly. It is funny, in a silly way, for a few pages, and then becomes tedious. Finally, one comes away from the Knox paper not really learning new or insightful about Holmes. The meticulous Rodger Prescott comes nearer the point, but does not deliver the knockout blow. While it is true that Sidgwick and others wrote important papers, papers with real content, before Knox, it was Morley who put it all together. Between his work in Saturday Review and his founding of the BSI, this truly was the basis of the long-term study of the Canon, both institutionally and in print.

If there had been indices in the earlier milestones of Holmesian scholarship when it was gathering force, and leading to the founding of the Baker Street Irregulars and England's first Sherlock Holmes Society -- Blakeney, Bell, Starrett, Davis, and Morley's own writings at the time -- you would have found very few entries for Knox (and none of them saluting him as the founder of the scholarship). Robers did emphasize the importance of Watsonischechronologie-problem in his 1929 refutation of Knox's paper, after it had been included in Knox's book Essays in Satire the year before, but it was not Knox who first tackled it, in 1911, it was Frank Sidgwick in 1902 in The Cambridge Review when The Hound of the Baskervilles was appearing serially. Sidgwick undetook chronological analysis first, to date the events in HOUN and then on earlier stories in the Canon to show that Dr. Watson should have been home with his wife Mary at the time, not living in Baker Street with no sign of the former Miss Morstan. As you say, erudite, systematic, humorous; playing The Game, having fun, and nearly a decade before Knox. I presume young Ronald saw it: his brother Alfred Dilwyn was at Cambridge at the time, and a follower of The Cambridge Review, according to Penelope Fitzgerald, biographer of all four Holmes-devoted Knox brothers.Jon Lellenbergnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2666460186096679676.post-21235019200395880762010-08-14T23:15:50.614-07:002010-08-14T23:15:50.614-07:00Even if Dr. Wolff were saying as gently as possibl...Even if Dr. Wolff were saying as gently as possible, "Go away, girlie, ya bother me," his view of what an Irregular is was practically incunabular. Hearken to his "We are about to award those Irregulars who have shown extraordinary devotion to the cause. We are about to give out the Irregular shillings. ..." on track 12, disc 2 of the new Voices from Baker Street. <br /><br />It's the same idea, though expressed to a group of gentleman rather than to one young woman. And that idea seems to have been around since the beginning of the movement. People were listed on the rolls of the parent organization long before investitures and shillings, and the members of the burgeoning scion societies seem to have been so regarded as well. But, of course, such matters were irregular then rather than important.Certainly this construction argues a wider interpretation of what an Irregular was and is.<br /><br />There has certainly been steady attrition in attendance at the annual dinner of the parent organization over the years, arising from a number of causes beyond the growth of the sodality or the (to some) unwelcome changes in the dinner program. People age, become ill or infirm, lose income, lose interest, etc. Twenty years ago a popular reason for staying home might be summed in the headline: "BSI Admits Women, Moscow." <br /><br />Some might well be tempted to sniff, "O temporae, O morons [sic]," but we all have differing ideas of the perfect Sherlockian evening. My own is actually breakfast, with a select circle of faces around the shining coffee pot.<br /><br />Cheers,The Bruce-Partington Plansnoreply@blogger.com
