- W4255041996 abstract "In one of its senses, the Moonstone does keep coming back in the early Sherlock Holmes stories. Of the twenty-five stories published in four volumes up to Holmes’ ‘death’ (A Study in Scarlet, 1887; The Sign of Four, 1890; Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892; Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, 1894), in no less than ten the crime is connected with events in or wealth from the former colonies. We have wicked colonels, hidden crimes, secret societies, and savage assassins; but, despite the insistence of the Indian Mutiny, transportation and the American Civil War, thanks to Holmes, in no case will the sins of the imperialist fathers be visited upon the children. Indeed, in one of his rare sallies into social comment, Holmes defends a new imperial federation: ‘I am one of those who believe that the folly of a monarch and the blundering of a minister in far-gone years will not prevent our children from being some day citizens of the same world-wide country under a flag which shall be a quartering of the Union Jack with the Stars and Stripes’ (‘The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor’).1" @default.
