Strange creatures Before us lay the urgent task of peacefully penetrating into the Land of Maple White. We managed to make sure with our own eyes that some strange creatures live in it, and Mapple White's sketches promised us the appearance of other, even more terrible monsters. Finally, we had every reason to think that there are people on the plateau, about whose ferocity the skeleton, ripped with bamboo, spoke of.
Desire Not harboring any hope of salvation, we knew that dangers lay in wait for us at every step, and decided to take all the precautions that his experience suggested to Lord John. But how long could we linger on the threshold of this mysterious world, if we were tormented by the desire to penetrate into its very heart as soon as possible!
Lord John, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and raised his hand. Look! he said. That's the trail! The ancestor of all birds must have walked here! Huge three-toed footprints were clearly visible on the viscous ooze. They led through the swamp to the forest. We stopped at these monstrous prints. If a bird really passed here and what animal could leave such traces? then her paw is so much larger than that of an ostrich that the size of this giant is even difficult to imagine. Lord John looked around carefully and loaded two rounds into his large-caliber rifle. I guarantee the honor of the hunter, he said, that the tracks were quite fresh. The footprints are quite fresh
Who could have dreamed that we ... No, my dear Roxton, this is by no means a bird! Beast? No, a reptile dinosaur. This is him, and no one else! Ninety years ago, such traces baffled a very venerable scientist from Sussex. But who could dream ... who could dream ... what we have to see ...
What will they say in England? Both professors seemed to be numb with joy ... An angelic smile played on Challenger's lips, which made his cheeks swell like apples; The bilious grimace disappeared from Summerlee's face, giving way to an expression of awe. Nunc dimittis! he exclaimed at last. What will they say about this in England? My dear Summerlee, I can tell you in confidence what exactly will be said in England, Challenger replied. They will say that you are a notorious liar and a charlatan who has nothing to do with science. The same thing that you and others like you said about me. What if we show photographs? Fake, Summerlee! Rough fake! And if we show physical evidence? A! Then they won't turn away from us!

Arthur Conan Doyle was born into an Irish Catholic family known for his achievements in art and literature. “A real love of literature, a penchant for writing comes from me, I believe, from my mother,” Conan Doyle wrote in his autobiography. Vivid images of the stories that she told me in early childhood completely replaced in my memory the recollections of specific events in my life in those years. "
School life Arthur attended Godder Preparatory School. When the boy was 9 years old, wealthy relatives offered to pay for his education and sent him for the next seven years to the Jesuit College Stonyhurst, from where the future writer brought out hatred of religious and class prejudices, as well as physical punishment. At the boarding school, Doyle enjoyed playing sports, and also discovered the talent of a storyteller, gathering around him peers who listened to stories on the go for hours.
As a third-year student at the University of Edinburgh, Doyle decided to try his hand at literature. His first story is "The Mystery of the Sesass Valley", the second is "American History." In February 1880, Doyle spent seven months in Arctic waters as a ship's doctor aboard the whaling ship Nadezhda, receiving a total of £ 50 for his work. “I boarded this ship as a big, clumsy youth, and came down the ladder as a strong adult man,” he later wrote in his autobiography.
After receiving a university degree and a bachelor of medicine in 1881, Conan Doyle took up medical practice, first jointly, then individual. Finally, in 1891, Doyle decided to make literature his main profession. In those days he met his future wife Louise "Tui" Hawkins; the wedding took place on August 6, 1885.
The outbreak of World War I completely turned Conan Doyle's life upside down. First, he volunteered for the front. After this offer was rejected, he devoted himself to journalistic activities. In 1916, Conan Doyle rode through the fighting positions of the British troops and visited the Allied armies, considering it his duty to maintain the morale of the soldiers. Doyle's brother, son and two nephews went to the front and died there. This was a tremendous shock for the writer and left a heavy stamp on all his further literary activities.
The writer spent the entire second half of the 1920s traveling, without stopping his active journalistic activity. His last trip to Scandinavia undermined his health. The next spring he spent in bed, surrounded by loved ones. At some point, there was an improvement: the writer immediately went to London to demand from the Minister of the Interior the abolition of laws that persecuted mediums. This effort was the last: in the early morning of July 7, 1930, at his home in Crowborough, Sussex, Conan Doyle died of a heart attack. He was buried near his garden house.
The first story in the series The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, A Scandal in Bohemia, was published in The Strand magazine in 1891. The prototype of the protagonist, who soon became the legendary detective-consultant, was Joseph Bell, a professor at the University of Edinburgh, famous for his ability to guess the character and past of a person in the smallest detail.
“He was over six feet tall, but with his extraordinary thinness he seemed even taller. His gaze was sharp, piercing, except for those periods of numbness, which were mentioned above; a thin aquiline nose gave his face an expression of lively energy and determination. A square, slightly protruding chin also spoke of a decisive character. " On his first meeting with Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson describes the great detective as tall, thin young man:
Over the course of two years, Doyle created story after story, and eventually began to feel weary about his own character. His attempt to "end" Holmes in a fight with Professor Moriarty ("Holmes's Last Case") was unsuccessful: the hero, beloved by the reading public, had to be "resurrected". Holmes's epic culminated in the novel The Hound of the Baskervilles, which is classified as a classic of the detective genre.
Four novels are dedicated to the adventures of Sherlock Holmes: "A Study in Crimson", "The Sign of Four", "The Hound of the Baskervilles", "Valley of Terror" and five collections of short stories. The extraordinary popularity of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson gradually developed into a branch of new mythology, the center of which remains to this day an apartment in London at 221-b Baker Street.
The first performer of Holmes on the Russian stage was Boris Glagolin, an artist of the Suvorin Theater in St. Petersburg. He, playing Holmes, "transformed from old to young and back, acting dexterously, quickly and clearly." Critics believed that Holmes was perceived by the public as "the genius of the almighty police, reasonable, fair, incorruptible", that the success of the performance was determined by "the yearning of bourgeois society in order", but Glagolin saw in Holmes not a defender of police reaction, but a good-natured volunteer fighter for order and justice ...
Ambassador Brenton in particular Ambassador Brenton said in particular to Mr. Livanov: he said to Mr. Livanov: “When I was a child, I loved Sherlock Holmes very much, and after watching your films, I can say that you are very similar to him. That is exactly what he was! "
A monument to the famous detective Sherlock Holmes and detective Sherlock Holmes and his permanent assistant Dr. Watson was opened near the embassy building near the British embassy on Smolenskaya Embankment Smolenskaya Embankment in Moscow A legend is associated with him. A legend is associated with him. It turns out that if you sit down It turns out that if you sit next to Dr. Watson and next to Dr. Watson and hold on to his notebook, hold on to his notebook, all problems and a book, all problems and doubts will be resolved. But if you touch the phone, doubts will be resolved. But if you touch the pipe famous detective- worries will noticeably increase. the famous detective - worries will increase significantly.
In 2007, the New Zealand Mint issued a commemorative series of four silver coins dedicated to the book's anniversary. The reverse of each coin depicts the main characters of the famous "Notes" performed by Russian actors: Livanov, Solomin, Mikhalkov, Zelenaya and others.

Acquaintance
One day, when I came to the library, I saw an old leather-bound book on the shelf. Taking it, I saw a beautiful inscription: Arthur Kona Doyle. I brought this book home and started reading. It contained stories about the shrewd detective Sherlock Holmes. He investigated various crimes in which the police threw up their hands and said: "We can do nothing to help." Sherlock Holmes could determine who this person was, what he was doing, where he came from by a small fingernail ... And therefore, not a single criminal escaped the deserved punishment. I really liked Sherlock Holmes for his intelligence and ability to build a logical chain, and Conan Doyle became my favorite writer. I wanted to know more about this writer.

Young years
The real name of the writer is Arthur Ignatius Konan Doyle. Born in Edinburgh (Scotland) on May 22, 1859, the son of Irish Catholics, known for his achievements in art and literature. Father Charles Altamont Doyle, an architect and artist, at the age of 22, married 17-year-old Mary Foley, who was passionate about books and had a great talent for storytelling. The family of the future writer was experiencing serious financial difficulties. And at the age of 9, wealthy relatives sent Arthur to a closed boarding school, where he discovered his talent as a storyteller and disliked religious class prejudices, as well as physical punishment. In 1876, Arthur graduated from college and returned home. Doyle opted for a career in medicine and entered the University of Edinburgh. There he also wrote his first story. And in 1880 he sailed on a whaling ship for 7 months as a doctor. And having received a university diploma and a bachelor's degree in medicine in 1881, he took up practice.

Literary life.
In February 1888, A. Conan Doyle completed work on the novel "Micah Clark", which tells the story of the Monmouth Rebellion in 1685, the purpose of which was to overthrow King James II. The novel was released in November and was warmly received by critics. From now on, in creative life Conan Doyle was in conflict: on the one hand, the public and publishers demanded new works about Sherlock Holmes; on the other hand, the writer himself was increasingly striving to gain recognition as the author of serious novels (primarily historical ones), as well as plays and poems. The first serious historical work Conan Doyle is considered to be the novel "The White Squad". With some admission, the novel "Rodney Stone" (1896) can also be classified as a historical one: the action here takes place in early XIX century, mentions Napoleon and Nelson, the playwright Sheridan.

In 1900, Conan Doyle returned to medical practice: as a surgeon in a military field hospital, he went to the Boer War. His 1902 book, The War in South Africa, met with enthusiastic approval from conservative circles. As a result of his activities in 1907, an appellate court was created in England, which did not exist before. In 1909, events in Africa again fell into the sphere of public and political interests of Conan Doyle. This time he came out with an exposure of the brutal colonial policy of Belgium in the Congo and criticized the British position on this issue. In 1912, Conan Doyle published the science fiction novel The Lost World (subsequently filmed more than once), which was followed by The Poisoned Belt (1913). The protagonist of both works is Professor Challenger, a fanatic scientist endowed with grotesque qualities, but at the same time, in his own way, humane and charming.

The outbreak of World War I completely turned Conan Doyle's life upside down. At first, he volunteered for the front, confident that his mission was to set a personal example of heroism and service to the motherland. After this offer was rejected, he devoted himself to journalism. Beginning on 8 August 1914, his letters appear in the London Times military theme... He proposed to create a massive combat reserve and detachments of the civilian population to carry out "the service of guarding railway stations and vital facilities, to help in the construction of fortifications and to carry out many other combat missions." Back in Crowborough (Sussex), Doyle personally set about organizing such units and on the very first day put 200 people under arms. In 1916, the writer drove through the combat positions of British troops and visited the Allied armies. The result of the trip was the book On Three Fronts (1916). In 1924, Conan Doyle's autobiographical book Memories and Adventures was published. The last major work of the writer was the science fiction story "Marakotova Abyss" (1929).
