Arsène Lupin, with his characteristic wit, plots over the course of nine short stories to steal many of France's best antiques and artworks from under their owners' noses. Only his classic opponent Detective Ganimard has the brilliance to attempt to foil Arsène's plans, albeit with mixed results.
This first collection of nine Arsène Lupin stories were originally serialised in the magazine Je Sais Tout from 1905 and translated into English in 1910. The final story of the set features an unauthorised Sherlock Holmes whose appearance annoyed Arthur Conan-Doyle; the character's name was changed to «Herlock Sholmes» for later stories. Arsène Lupin later went on to feature in over fifty stories by Maurice Leblanc along with many other books, films and plays around the world.

Arsène Lupin versus Herlock Sholmes features two adventures following a match of wits between Lupin and Herlock Sholmes. The character «Herlock Sholmes» is a transparent reference to Sherlock Holmes of Arthur Conan Doyle's detective stories. The first story, «The Blonde Lady», opens with the purchase of an antique desk by a mathematics professor. The desk is subsequently stolen, as it turns out, by Arsène Lupin. Later, both Lupin and the professor realize that a lottery ticket, left inadvertently in the desk, is the winning ticket, and Lupin proceeds to ensure he obtains half of the winnings while executing a near-impossible escape with a blonde lady. After the theft of the Blue Diamond, again by a blonde lady, Ganimard made the connection to Lupin and an appeal was made to Herlock Sholmes to match wits with Lupin. Inadvertently, Lupin and his biographer met with the newly arrived Sholmes and his assistant, Wilson, in a Parisian restaurant, and they shared a cautious détente before Lupin sets off to lay his traps. "The Jewish Lamp" opens with another appeal to Herlock Sholmes for help in recovering a Jewish lamp. After reading the appeal, Sholmes is shocked to read a second letter, this time by Lupin and arriving on the same day's post, which warns him not to intervene. Sholmes is outraged by Lupin's audacity and resolves to go to Paris….

Аннотация

Arsène Lupin présente la particularité de se grimer, se maquiller, se déguiser ou même se transformer selon le personnage qu'il incarne. Néanmoins, au naturel, il s'agit, semble-t-il, d'un personnage plutôt élancé, de belle allure et d'une force peu commune, liée à son entraînement. Il fait montre de ses talents dans de nombreuses aventures qui se suivent chronologiquement et ont pour cadre la France de la Belle Époque puis, plus brièvement, celle des Années Folles. Sa répulsion à tuer et son respect des femmes le rendent fort sympathique pour un large public jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Contenu : L'arrestation d'Arsène Lupin Arsène Lupin en prison L'évasion d'Arsène Lupin Le mystérieux voyageur Le Collier de la Reine Le sept de cœur Le coffre-fort de madame Imbert La perle noire Herlock Sholmès arrive trop tard
