| dc.description.abstract | The present research on Doyle’s The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes explores that Gothic elements used in the novel become instrumental in subverting evil of society. The author uses sensationalism to show the Gothic feature. Doyle employs sensationalism, mystery, suspense, terror, horror, doubtfulness and fantasy in order to critique the follies of the society. In the novel, the Red-headed League is announced only to give priority upon uncommon man for the employment. Mr. Culvert on, the planter, exposed physically a huge skull and sullen, menacing eyes man as a demon or ghost. | en_US |
