| Summary | Text | The article argues that between A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of Four, Arthur Conan Doyle deliberately reworked and enriched Sherlock Holmes, correcting weaknesses and adding vivid traits, habits, and contradictions. It concludes that Holmes's drug use, sharper eccentricities, and narrative refinements show Conan Doyle consciously re-creating the character to strengthen his appeal and dramatic credibility. |
