Is Sherlock a hero whose popularity will never end?

[Mateos]

As I wrote some time ago in the welcoming post, I am writing my thesis about Sherlock Holmes, his popularity, and influence on modern generations. To finish my final chapter I need your answers in the survey. I hope that this new topic will help me in finding new respondents. 

 

It takes about 15 minutes and I know that in these times it is a long period of time, but I (and the supervisior of my thesis!) will be extremely grateful if you could fill this survey.

 

I need about 50 more answers, the deadline is coming, so I'm getting more and more desperate about it. So, you know, I've just realized that my "Sherlock" obsession is bad when I started to spam and ask for help everywhere on the Internet.

This is the link to survey, I've changed the language into English, so it's more friendly than before.

But even if you don't fill the survey or you've already done it - do you think that Sherlock's popularity will last?

I already took it, but yes, I do, in one form or another. He's basically become an archetype, someone who the model for a thousand others. So if the name isn't Sherlock, I think the character will continue to be popular.

 

Have you tried posting your link on some of the Sherlock Facebook pages? This one, for example: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SherlockiansSherlock/

Yes, I've tried in many groups on Facebook and Google+, but not in this one, so thanks. I'll try. 

 

 

 

I've already read some answers and the most fascinating fact is that there are many people who haven't read any short stories about Sherlock or watched any adaptations, but they still are able to associate him with a pipe, a deerstalker, a coat, or a cane.
