    Abstract: Sherlock Holmes represents an archetype whose genius and eccentricity made him famous around the world and inspired countless other detectives that are based on him, thus creating a Sherlock Holmes paradigm. Moreover, he epitomizes the concepts of genius and eccentricity, which are already marked by a long cultural history, and helped to firmly establish them in popular culture. But what is it about Holmes that sets him apart from other characters and can explain the public’s enduring fascination with him?
    In this study, it will be shown how numerous elements of the paradigm are still present in many contemporary television crime series, such as the two British series Agatha Christie’s Poirot (1989 – 2013) and Sherlock (2010 – present) as well as the two US series Monk (2002 – 2009) and The Mentalist (2008 – 2015). I will illustrate that the crucial factors of this continuum through time, space and different media are Holmes’s genius and eccentricity in their manifold manifestations. The aim is to verify Holmes as the embodiment of the continuing ambivalence of this label: On the one hand, it offers an outlet for individuality in an age of standardisation and a promise of salvation in troubled times. On the other hand, it comes at the price of being considered an outsider by not conforming to social conventions and traditional gender roles or even of being branded as mentally ill.
    At first sight, it may seem paradoxical that order and orientation are brought about by a character that is actually marked by his refusal to conform to any norms. Yet it will be shown how the genius of Holmes and his eccentricities are made more relatable to the audience by the seriality of the TV shows as they provide the platform to show both patterns and progress of their protagonists, i.e. eccentric geniuses.
    In order to explore the relation between the eccentric genius and society, a televised form of detective fiction is especially useful because of the genre’s intrinsic interest in social order and disorder as well as the medium’s link to society. Bearing the sociocultural factor in mind, it will be discussed how the change of time and context affects the image we have of this type and why we still have use for it. As a result, the portrayal of these characters allows us to draw conclusions about the needs, hopes and fears of the society in which they are created

    Abstract: The popular medium of the periodical accompanied the subjects of Queen Victoria throughout their lives. It explained their own society to them and opened a window onto the world beyond Britain. The Black Forest was one of the travel destinations that were newly discovered by Victorian tourists in the second half of the 19th century. Periodical articles, reports and stories about the Black Forest reflect the things that fascinated and intrigued British travellers of this less frequented area of Germany.

    In eight posters students of the English department at the University of Freiburg show the facets of the Black Forest that were introduced to readers in Great Britain between 1840 and 1901: in periodicals for the family, for women and for a young readership. The final poster contrasts this view on the Black Forest from the outside with an inside view taken from the German periodical Die Gartenlaube. While the emphases shift slightly, there are also many similarities to the British view, as the German public newly explored and discovered the Black Forest for itself

  7. The heroic as “Gift” on the Victorian and Edwardian book market

    Zusammenfassung: A concern with the heroic has been identified as a defining trait of Victorian culture, but its manifestations have been studied neither in detail nor systematically. As far as print culture is concerned, the focus of research has been on literature, and specifically literature in the more high-cultural and canonised corner of the literary field. With the exception of imperial adventure novels, popular literature has rarely been discussed. Even less attention has been paid to the wider field of the popular print market, although the heroic had a particularly prominent place in this field of cultural production and reached great numbers of readers in all parts of Victorian society. This collection is dedicated to a popular book genre that had a special affinity to the heroic. “Gift books” – also referred to as “reward books”, “prize books” or “presentation books” – were produced in great numbers from early Victorian times to the First World War, and quite frequently as part of an entire series. They were an important medium for disseminating ideas about the heroic in Victorian society, and they perpetuated Victorian concepts of the heroic into the twentieth century. The “hero books” compiled here are collections of narratives about heroes and heroic deeds. Most of them were produced as gift books in the narrow sense: books that were meant to be given as presents, usually to young readers. But hero books very similar to those targeted at children – in terms of content but also material appearance (binding, cover and inside illustrations) and marketing – were also produced for adult readers

    Zusammenfassung: This essay introduces the database for a research project analysing the discourse of the heroic in periodicals for the “common” reader in Victorian Britain. The essay sketches some overall results of the project, and the database makes bibliographical and analytical data available for further use by other scholars. The research project was undertaken under the premise that general-interest periodicals give insight into popular concepts of heroes and heroic behaviour and the way they were discussed in the wider public sphere of Victorian society. As will be seen, the Victorians approached their heroes with an ambivalence that seems to anticipate the divided opinions about the heroic in the twenty-first century: Ideas about heroic figures and actions were diverse, contested, and sometimes contradictory. The Victorians honoured heroes, but they also saw them with scepticism and even suspicion. Their attitudes towards the heroic oscillated between disenchantment and a desire to be (re-)enchanted

    Abstract: This article traces the medial translation of ‘Die Frau Professorin’, one of Bertold Auerbachʼs most popular Black Forest Tales. When Mary Howitt translated the tale into English, it not only moved into a new cultural context, but also into a new medium: The Illustrated London News was a weekly periodical in which Auerbachʼs tale was significantly reframed for a metropolitan British readership

    Abstract: Bei einem ‚Debunking‘ heroischer Figuren handelt es sich um eine Form der bewussten Deheroisierung mit dem Ziel, eine bestehende heroische Reputation zu zerstören. Ein Debunking zielt in der Regel darauf ab, nicht nur die einzelne heroische Figur in ihren Schwächen und Fehlern zu exponieren, sondern auch ihr ideologisches Umfeld, d. h. die zugrundeliegende Konzeption des Heroischen sowie im weiteren Sinne das Denk- und Wertesystem, aus der die Heroisierung hervorging

    A wave of British World War II films was released in the aftermath of the 2016 Brexit referendum: Dunkirk, Darkest Hour, Their Finest, Churchill and Hurricane. The paper offers a preliminary reading of these films’ reviews in the British and, for comparative purposes, German press. The reviews are read as an immediate response of critics who anticipated the films’ likely impacts on audiences in Brexit-haunted times.

    Debunking of heroic figures is a form of deliberate de-heroization with the aim of destroying an existing heroic reputation. The means of debunking can be the direct revelation of characteristics or deeds that contradict the heroic reputation of a figure (e.g. in a biography), but debunking can also make use of elements of satire and parody. Debunking aims to expose not only the individual heroic figure’s weaknesses and flaws, but also their ideological environment, i.e. the underlying conception of the heroic as well as, in a broader sense, the system of thought and values from which the heroization emerged.

    Through fictional portrayals – in literature, film and television, comics and computer games – the secret actions of spies become public and can then (potentially) be heroized. However, fictional spies are usually precarious and ambiguous heroes because their deeds, insofar as heroic qualities can be attributed to them at all, are performed in moral grey areas. This makes the spy character suitable for a critical and sceptical negotiation of heroism.
