Police
series, detective stories, criminal mysteries, and many other options in the
field of crime and delinquency have been explored by the English from the first
moment they started existing, a very long time ago.
Shakespeare
and he was not the first author in the field, loved those stories of crimes and
criminals, having people assassinated, or mutilated, or tortured on the stage
from Titus Andronicus to Romeo and Juliet.
Dickens
was a good one too in that field, but Shakespeare looked at crime from the
outside, from some ethical point of view. Dickens looked at it from inside,
from the point of view of the criminals themselves forced to commit crimes in
order to simply survive.
Then
you had Mary Shelley and her Frankenstein and then later on Dracula came into
the picture, and many others trill we came across Conan Doyle who edicted the
proper form of a crime story or detective story, hence an investigation of a
crime we can only see from outside, and the investigation is to get into it to
see how it got developed and who was the criminal.
Since
then, with the radio at first, the cinema next, and finally television leading
directly to streaming and the Internet, those police adventures have just
become adventures, and the extreme form is what they call action films where
violence is no longer criminal since it has been transformed into the ultimate
survival if not the final renascence before the apocalypse.
Enjoy
these series.
