Discuss the character of Miss Irene Adler. सुश्री आइरिन एडलर का चरित्र-चित्रण कीजिये।

Answer»

Sherlock Holmes himself was a detective but he spoke of Irene Adler in terms of great respect. She was cleverer than Sherlock Holmes. She was a beautiful American actress. The king of Bohemia loved her. She also loved the king but she was not of royal blood so the king could not marry her. She had the personal letters of the king and a photograph. She threatened the king that she would write to the princess about their love affair. When she got married to her old lawyer, Godfrey Norton, she returned the photo without any condition. For now, it was not of any use to her. She was so clever that the king could not get the photo easily. He had to hire a detective. But she beat the detective at his own game.

शरलॉक होम्स स्वयं एक जासूस थे किन्तु फिर भी वे आईरिन एडलर की सम्मान के साथ प्रशंसा करते थे। वह शरलॉक होम्स से भी ज्यादा चतुर थी। वह एक सुंदर अमेरिकन अभिनेत्री थी। बोहिमिया का राजा उससे प्यार करता था। वह राजा से प्यार करती थी लेकिन वह शाही खानदान से नहीं थी इसलिये राजा उससे शादी नहीं। कर सकता था। उसके पास स्वयं राजा के हाथ से उसके व्यक्तिगत कागज पर लिखे हुए पत्र थे तथा एक फोटो था। उसने राजा को धमकी दी कि वह राजकुमारी को उनके प्रेम प्रसंग के बारे में पत्र लिखेगी। जब उसने अपने पुराने वकील गॉडफ्रे नार्टन से शादी कर ली तो उसने उस फोटो को बगैर शर्त लौटा दिया। क्योंकि अब वह उसके लिए किसी काम का नहीं था। वह इतनी चालाक थी कि राजा उससे उस फोटो को आसानी से प्राप्त नहीं कर सका था। उसे एक जासूस की सहायता लेनी पड़ी। लेकिन उसने जासूस को भी मात दे दी।
