For the members of the middle class and especially for the poor this showed that even noblemen can be immoral and violent. Holmes often investigates crimes committed by people of high standing. The heroic Holmes, who solved the most complicated mysteries, encouraged and supported them.
In the Victorian England, at the age of industrial develpoment many people lived in poverty and insecurity. What is more important: he gave a significant thing - hope. Sherlock soon became a pioneer in solving crimes, and his name was the synonym of logical thinking. The smart sleuth met with success at his first appearance, so his adventures relocated to The Strand Magazine – this way the exciting stories got accessible and affordable for much more readers. The model of Holmes was Professor Joseph Bell. The author proudly wrote the following: „This is my first book that ever been published.” He carefully registered the royalties he earned with the detective stories – these notes, together with his extended correspondence are held in British libraries. You can see the cover of the magazine on the above picture. He tried to find a publisher for it many times, and in the end the eccentric detective appeared in the Beeton’s Christmas Annual in 1887. His number one Holmes story was entitled A Study in Scarlet, and it proved not so successful at first. His famous creature rightly made him rich and famous. It is evident, though, that he invented many things and amazingly mixed others. Many writers impressed him, for example Edgar Allan Poe. In his books he willingly depicted legends that stirred up his imagination and people whom he found interesting. It is an established fact that he worked „backwards” – namely he made up the crime and then unfolded the story back to the beginning.
