«VATSON, MY OTPRAVLYAEMSYA V STRANU CHREZVYCHAJNYH OHRAN...» (Sherlok Holms, ehpigony i pervaya russkaya revolyuciya)

 

The 1900–1910s in the Russian Empire were marked by the almost unexampled «detective fever», that started adopting new shapes since 1907, when various publishing houses and press organs began to publish numerous pastiche stories about the adventures of Sherlock Holmes in the late-Imperial Russia. Though little is known about the authors of such pastiches, it is certain that the pseudo-Sherlockian stories were used by some authors as platforms for the expression and promotions of their own ideas — mostly politics-related. In the following article the most notable examples of the Russian Sherlockiana were analyzed, focusing mostly on the «political» layer of the texts.

Key words: Anglo-Russian literary contacts, Sherlock Holmes, Russian detective fiction, Russian mass literature in the early XXth century, Suvorin’s theatre, M. Suvorin, B. Glagolin, P. Orlovets, P. Nikitin, S. Propper, «Ogonyok».
