14 週間 シャーロック ホームズ ミステリー ストーリー クラブ

Many people consider Sherlock Holmes to be the greatest fictional detective of all time. In this class we will read and discuss 13 of his mysteries by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. We will talk about the mystery itself, how Holmes discovered the truth and the outcome of each case. Learners will write two papers over the course of the class choosing from 2 of 3 topics, one is more academic and the other two are more creative.  Each week learners should read the assigned mystery before coming to class and be ready to discuss it with the rest of the class. All of the stories are public domain and easily accessed online, a link will be provided for the following week's story after each class. There is no reading for the first week. All stories are relatively short and learners should be able to read them quickly.
