Sherlock Holmes: An expert’s view of expertise
No full textIn recent years, there has been an intense research effort to understand the cognitive processes and structures underlying expert behaviour. Work in different fields, including scientific domains, sports, games, and mnemonics, has shown that there are vast differences in perceptual abilities between experts and novices, and that these differences may underpin other cognitive differences in learning, memory, and problem solving. In this article, we evaluate the progress made in the last years through the eyes of an outstanding, albeit fictional, expert: Sherlock Holmes. We first use the Sherlock Holmes character to illustrate expert processes as described by current research and theories. In particular, the role of perception, as well as the nature and influence of expert knowledge, are all present in the description of Conan Doyle’s hero. In the second part of the article, we discuss a number of issues that current research on expertise has barely addressed. These gaps include, for example, several forms of reasoning, the influence of emotions on cognition, and the effect of age on experts’ knowledge and cognitive processes. Thus, although nearly 120 years old, Conan Doyle’s books show remarkable illustrations of expert behaviour, including the coverage of themes that have mostly been overlooked by current research
‘Changing the Conversation’: Simon Stephens, Sean Holmes, and Secret Theatre
No full textOf the many enduring creative relationships between director and playwright within British theatre, the partnership of Sean Holmes and Simon Stephens is currently one of the most enlivening. The pair met through the Royal Court and Holmes directed the UK premiere of Stephens’s Pornography in 2008. After an unsuccessful bid to become co-Artistic Directors of the Actors Touring Company in 2007, in 2008 Holmes applied for the position of Artistic Director at the Lyric Hammersmith, London, on the condition that, if successful, Stephens would join him as Artistic Associate. Holmes was appointed Artistic Director in Spring 2009, from which time Stephens has served as, in his own words, Holmes’s ‘Chief Irritant’. Drawing upon interviews with Stephens, Holmes and other collaborators, this article addresses and evaluates the shared aesthetic interests and imperatives which informed ‘Secret Theatre’ (2013-2015), the Lyric Hammersmith’s exploration of ensemble-led theatre-making. It evidences Stephens’s enthusiasm for structures of theatre-making and programming experienced in German-language theatre cultures and assesses his influence upon the practice of both established and emerging theatre directors working in Britain.</p
