Tungkol sa may-akda
Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (1859–1930) was a British writer and physician, renowned for creating the iconic detective Sherlock Holmes. Born in Edinburgh, Scotland, Doyle studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, which is where he began writing short stories. His first significant work, 'A Study in Scarlet', introduced Holmes and his loyal friend, Dr. John Watson, marking the beginning of a new era of detective fiction. Conan Doyle's contribution to the genre is immortalized in his four novels and numerous short stories featuring the detective, many of which are collected in 'THE GREATEST BRITISH DETECTIVES - Ultimate Collection'. His Holmes stories often reflect the Victorian and Edwardian eras' societal complexities, featuring a blend of meticulous plotting, attention to detail, and the use of logic and deduction, which became the hallmark of his literary style. Despite initially struggling for recognition, Doyle's works have achieved unparalleled acclaim, cementing him as a cornerstone of crime fiction. Additionally, he wrote in other genres, such as science fiction, historical novels, plays, romances, and poetry. Conan Doyle was knighted in 1902 for his contributions to literature and the field of medicine during the South African War. His legacy persists, with Holmes remaining one of literature's most enduring and beloved characters.
