Even after Holmes was brought back, Conan Doyle devoted as much energy as possible to spreading his beliefs, calling his crusade, "the most important thing in the world" (via the Arthur Conan Doyle Estate). In 1901, Conan Doyle caved to the pressure, and brought the consulting detective back from his fictional grave.ĭespite the fervour his work stirred up in readers, Conan Doyle stated that he would be happy to give up his literary career if in return more people would believe in spiritualism. Fans, who some say wore black mourning bands, canceled their subscriptions to the magazine that published the Holmes stories and wrote furious letters to Conan Doyle.

In "The Final Problem," Sherlock Holmes was killed while on a case. After years of writing the famous character, Conan Doyle had had enough of crime stories, and his rationalist protagonist. ![]() "Killed Holmes," Conan Doyle wrote in his diary in 1893 (via the BBC). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, for the first half of the twentieth century, scholarly and historical attention focused almost exclusively on the actions of whites, both in the South and in the North, and ignored the immense contributions of African Americans. The rebuilding of Southern society and the political reintegration of the South into the nation after the Civil War is referred to more generally simply as Reconstruction. However, significant political and other Reconstruction activity by African Americans continued at the local and state levels beyond 1877. ![]() Many historians define Black Reconstruction as spanning the years from 1863 (the year of the Emancipation Proclamation, which made possible widespread black military participation in the Civil War) through 1877 (the year of the national political agreement to remove federal troops from the South). It involved the transformation of Southern political, economic, and social institutions in a manner consistent with the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments, which collectively established black freedom and equality. The term Black Reconstruction refers to the actions and activities of both black and white Americans in the period immediately after the Civil War. LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE RESISTANCE ![]() ![]() The pub scene was refreshed by men arriving from the country, whose sometime misogyny was further inflamed by an outsider’s animus against the Dublin middle classes. “Once you get a glimpse of the world of the Women Writers’ Club,” writes Morash, “their absence from the memoirs of literary Dublin becomes all the more remarkable.” Its members included the much loved children’s author Patricia Lynch and playwright Teresa Deevy, who visited with Liam Miller of the Dolmen Press and partied with Jack B Yeats. In the Shelbourne and the Gresham we see Bowen and Kate O’Brien honoured by the Women Writers’ Club, a group which met monthly to celebrate books and to battle censorship. There are so many different ghosts here, fictional and real so many different ways, in this part of town, to be dead. ![]() Sitting beside the canal we find not just Kavanagh, but also Beckett visiting his mother in her last days – or is it his character Krapp? – waiting on a bench for the blind on her window to be pulled down. ![]() Christopher Morash’s fine update on literary Dublin may begin with McDaid’s, but it soon moves beyond the powerful myth of the drinking writer made and mourned by Anthony Cronin in his book Dead As Doornails.Įchoing through the streets of “Baggotonia” are the well-shod footstep of Elizabeth Bowen, who was born at 15 Herbert Place. It used to be said that some people give directions by way of the pubs and some by way of the churches, and for too long, perhaps, the literary map of Ireland has been a pub crawl. ![]() ![]() ![]() Original, charismatic, energetic, often brilliant, people with ADD have extraordinary talents and gifts embedded in their highly charged but easily distracted minds. As Hallowell and Ratey point out, "attention deficit disorder" is a highly misleading description of an intriguing kind of mind. Ratey build on the breakthroughs of Driven to Distraction to offer a comprehensive and entirely up-to-date guide to living a successful life with ADD. And doctors are realizing that millions of adults suffer from this condition, though the vast majority of them remain undiagnosed and untreated. Drug therapies, our understanding of the role of diet and exercise, even the way we define the disorder-all are changing radically. Now a second revolution is under way in the approach to ADD, and the news is great. Widely recognized as the classic in the field, the book has sold more than a million copies. ![]() ![]() "If you read only one book about attention deficit disorder, it should be Delivered from Distraction."-Michael Thompson, Ph., New York Times bestselling co-author of Raising Cain In 1994, Driven to Distraction sparked a revolution in our understanding of attention deficit disorder. ![]() |
