Abstract:

The aim of this article is to illustrate the importance of the concept “mystery” in the classification of Sepedi detective stories. Mystery is therefore first defined, and then some rules governing how mystery is created and sustained in a narrative are reviewed. Examples are given of how the writers of Sepedi detective stories mislead their readers in order to create mystery. Mystery is then examined according to five of its constituent elements, namely the real character of the detective, the name of the criminal, the identity of the victim, the evidence that reveals the mystery in the end,

Abstract:

Detective fiction is a genre characterized by mystery, reasoning, and intrigue that has captivated readers for centuries. However, the mystery here does not rely on theology but is rooted in logic. Malmgren (1997), in Bloody Murder, defines detective fiction as a hybrid genre encompassing elements of detective crime, psychological analysis, suspense, and police procedural stories. It ensures that the detective's resolution of the crime presented to them does not depend on “divine revelations, feminine intuition, nonsensical ramblings, trickery, coincidence, or acts of God.”

Abstract:

The element of mystery can be a naturally intriguing component of a mathematics lesson for middle school students. Mystery stories capture students“ interest and attention and contribute to developing critical-reading skills (Crouse and Bassett 1975; Curcio 1982; Scalzitti 1982). When presenting mystery stories within the context of a mathematics lesson, students often ask, “What does this have to do with mathematics?” Significant connections can be made between solving a mystery and solving a mathematics problem that supply a rationale for incorporating mystery stories in the mathematics clas

The article focuses on the investigation of detective fiction in general and detective stories in particular which in this research is understood as a narrative where the plot hinges on a crime that the characters investigate and attempt to solve. The research also deals with various genre types of detective stories, such as police-department procedurals, hardboiled, locked room mysteries, cosy mysteries. Special attention is paid to the genre development of detective stories from a historical perspective. It is worth underlining that the period between World War I and World War II (the 1920s

Abstract:

Historians and detectives work in similar ways, each trying to figure out what happened in the past. Both look for clues or evidence left behind, and both create a tentative explanation based on this evidence. This article begins with this important similarity in order to show how nonfiction books for children that present history as a mystery read like thrillers and reveal the process of historical thinking. We use two distinct detective stories about Typhoid Mary to show how history mysteries accomplish this: the story of the detective on the scene who, like any mystery detective, tackles a

Purpose. The article dwells upon the range of conceptual metaphors with the target domains CRIME and INVESTIGATION verbalized in Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective stories. The research aims at tracing the cognitive mechanisms of conceptual metaphoric mappings which objectify the key concepts of the detective text: CRIME and INVESTIGATION. The analysis is done on the basis of the theoretical points of cognitive linguistic schools, namely the conceptual metaphor theory. The aim is achieved by completing the following tasks: singling out the key concepts of a detective story and tracing their concep

Raymond Chandler created his detective Philip Marlowe not as the idealisation of heroic individualism as is commonly perceived, but instead as an authentic individual subjected to very real psychological frailties resulting from his traumatic experiences during World War One. Marlowe's characterisation goes beyond the traditional chivalric readings and should instead be interpreted as an authentic representation of a traumatised veteran in American society.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the reasons why readers choose to read detective fiction. Taking Thomas De Quincey's satirical identification of the aesthetic quality of murder, I look at Edgar Allan Poe's detective fiction to find a non-satiric version of the same argument that emphasises the balancing quality of the ethical to the aesthetic. W.H. Auden's essay “The Guilty Vicarage” offers an argument concerning the reader's position in relation to these opposite components. I explore the ways in which Auden's arguments build into Freud's understanding of guilt, daydreams, the moral

Abstract:

This work examines the significance of drugs in Victorian stories of detection through a selection of detective fiction published between the years 1860 and 1890. The main purpose of the work is to show how these texts make a specific link between drugs and detection, and use this link to engage themselves in questions concerning reading and the consumption of fiction. I wish to argue, first, that drugs play a significant role in Victorian detective stories as a device to produce a sense of mystery and excitement in these texts. Secondly, I shall hope to show how this is achieved especially by

Abstract:

This chapter examines the work of Eudora Welty in relation to the conventions of pulp and genre fiction, specifically that of mystery and detective stories. When read through this lens, Welty’s short fiction reveals “clues,” often in the form of the pulp publications strewn throughout her stories, that direct the reader on interpreting her characters. In “Petrified Man,” the women act as detectives, perusing pulp magazines that ultimately point them towards catching the criminal, and in “Old Mr. Marblehall,” the titular character is a bigamist who reads lowbrow publications in horror and science fiction, magazines that signal the slaveholding South’s own troubled history of white men leading double lives. Both short stories pay tribute to the mystery genre, appropriating such elements as disappearing acts, doppelgängers, counterfeit identities, and the popularity of pulp genre fiction presenting suspect constructions of masculinity.

Abstract:

Abstract Edward Dentinger Hoch has said, 1always have my ears and eyes open for story possibilities, especially looking for odd and unusual facts.” Hoch’s ability to see life in terms of story ideas has made him a rare bird indeed: a writer who makes his living largely from writing short fiction. His publication of nearly 800 short stories is especially remarkable considering that this was accomplished during four decades when magazine markets were folding. At a time when most other writers of crime, mystery, adventure, westerns, fantasy, and science fiction-all genres that Hoch has explored-turned to the more healthy paperback or hardcover novel markets, Hoch continued to pro duce short stories of reliable quality that gained him recognition as “the most important post-World War II writer of mystery and detective short stories” (Critical Survey of Mystery and Detective Fiction, edited by Frank N. Magill). In fact, so steady is Hoch’s output that Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine has run a story by Hoch in every issue of the magazine from 1973 to the present. With the exception of two stories published in 1992, they were all newly written.

Abstract:

Abstract Noting the affinity between modernist aesthetics and the vernacular “entertainment” of genre fiction—in particular, the detective story—this chapter charts the ways in which the style and tone of US detective fiction was intimately bound up with the growth of a Hollywood studio system organized around genres like westerns, adventure stories, musicals, screwball comedy, gangster dramas, and crime stories. The chapter charts the influence of the idea of film noir—conceived as a fusion of US hard-boiled crime fiction and German expressionist cinematography—on detective fiction in both text and film after 1940. It concludes by noting that in the last quarter of the twentieth century, hard-boiled detective fiction veered in two different directions: it was given new life as genre fiction by women writers, even as some notable practitioners of “literary fiction” took the idea of “mystery” in the direction of the fantastic.

Abstract:

The chapter examines Robin Stevens’s Murder Most Unladylike Mystery series, arguing that subtextual concerns of the English interwar detective fiction and boarding school stories, namely those of national, racial, and sexual Others intruding into traditional English places, are foregrounded, offering a lens on the exclusionary and containing structures and spaces of English society. The novels inscribe the reassuring geographies and interior spaces of the boarding school novel with the anxieties of detective fiction, allowing the protagonists an escape from identities of class, ethnicity and childhood through the assertion of an identity as a detective. The essay reveals how detection offers the protagonists agency in contrast to the performative identity they take on as schoolgirls. In other words, the girls perform the identity of ‘schoolgirl’; their real identity is ‘detective’.

Abstract It seems appropriate to launch a volume of shipboard and shoreline mystery stories with a tale of murder, mayhem, and mutiny on deck. This also happens to be the account of the first case undertaken by the world’s great consulting detective, Sherlock Holmes. Although Holmes was introduced in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s “A Study in Scarlet” in 1887, “The ‘Gloria Scott,’” published six years later, holds a special place in the canon of Holmes stories. Here Holmes recounts the case that revealed to him that his extraordinary skills at observation might serve him-and others in need-as more than the “hobby” of a restless intellect.
