The Hound of the Baskervilles is not just a tale of good versus evil but also one of the ancient world meeting the modern. The atavistic part of the human psyche as represented by the natural world of Dartmoor versus the enlightened modernity of Holmes and the new Lord Baskerville. With a touch of Gothick. A microlecture by Michael Blackburn.
