Popular Culture Review
Whether on the page or on the screen, in 1890s London or in twenty-fourth
century space, whether a man, holograph, or hulking sewer rat—Moriarty
transcends Conan Doyle’s original creation. It’s time the scholarship caught up.
The sheer volume of Sherlockiana is overwhelming, and yet, very little appears
to have been written about the Great Detective’s arch-nemesis— especially as he
appears beyond the confines of the canon. Despite his almost absence from the
original stories. Professor James Moriarty continues to define—and to re
define—not only Mr. Sherlock Holmes, but the entire landscape of the popular
imagination as well.
