Cromwell Milton Collins Carson is from the epic poem Yrland Regained: Central Cantos 'structured' within American modernist poetry techniques in the direction of H. D., Marianne Moore, Charles Olson, Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams to Louis Zukofsky, predominantly the long poem, including Ed Dorn's Gunslinger and Ferlinghetti's Americus. The war strategies of the Tower, Whitehall, and Westminster (London) are reflected through the central protagonists Oliver Cromwell, John Milton author of Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained, Edward Carson and Michael Collins.Carson with the patronage of Winston Churchill annexed Six Counties in the North of Ireland (1920) by an act of parliament at Westminster. The 'Six Counties' as landmass is slightly larger than Cyprus and much smaller then Sicily. Milton's Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained are subtexts explored as politically censored poetry covertly in homage to Cromwell. The Collins Carson Cantos presents the War of Independence that led to the Irish Republic and the Six Counties Partition. Linear chronology and timelines are avoided in keeping with modernism and juxtaposed genres: classical to modern, elegy, parody, pastiche, journalese, tabloid, graffiti, headlines, visuals, rap, songs, expletives, mock-irony, na ve rhyming, musical lines, and explicit conflict-humour.
Saavuttuaan Denveriin Coloradoon Tex, Carson ja Kit ryhtyvät selvittämään salaperäisiä tihutöitä, joilla sabotoidaan rautateiden rakentamista. Kaivoksenomistaja James Hortonkin joutuu rikollisten roistontöiden uhriksi. Seikkailun pyörteissä väärillä nimillä esiintyvät sankarimme selvittävät kadonneen rouva Hortonin arvoituksen. Takaa-ajoja, juonittelevia roistoja, laukaustenvaihtoa ja väijytyksiä riittää tässäkin tunnerikkaassa seikkailussa, joista ei huumoriakaan puutu.

University of Utah Anthropological Paper No. 123 This study examines prehistoric use of the Stillwater Marsh in the Carson Desert of western Nevada and the adjacent Stillwater Mountains based on an archaeological survey undertaken in 1980 and 1981, and excavations conducted in 1987. Much of the argument about the use of wetlands revolved around whether they were used be sedentary hunter-gatherers, were just one stop of a family’s seasonal round, or were used only as backup resources. As a result, this report focuses on the issues of hunter-gatherer subsistence and mobility.

Filipinos in Carson and the South Bay

One of Carson's most distinct features is its diversity. The city is roughly one-quarter each Hispanic, African American, white, and Asian/ Pacific Islander. This last group's vast majority are Filipinos who settled as early as the 1920s as farmworkers, U.S. military recruits, entrepreneurs, medical professionals, and other laborers, filling the economic needs of the Los Angeles region. This vibrant community hosts fiestas like the Festival of Philippine Arts and Culture and has produced local community heroes, including "Uncle Roy" Morales and "Auntie Helen" Summers Brown. Filipino students of the 1970s organized to gain college admissions, establish ethnic studies, and foster civic leadership, while Filipino businesses have flourished in Carson, San Pedro, Wilmington, Long Beach, and the surrounding communities. Carson is recognized nationally as a Filipino American destination for families and businesses, very much connected to the island homeland.

Understanding the Short Fiction of Carson McCullers uses diverse critical techniques to identify how McCullers's short fiction engages with the modern world and contemporary audiences. While McCullers's longer work has received significant critical attention, her short fiction has not received the same treatment. This collection adds to analyses of McCullers's better-known stories as well as considers those that have received little or no critical attention. McCullers's writing maintains lasting appeal because it captures both the joy and sadness of humanity, especially the meaning we draw from connections with others and the pain of isolation when we find it difficult to cultivate these relationships in modern culture. While critical assessment of McCullers's work has more often focused on her concern with loneliness and belonging, this collection depicts an author who was deeply invested in the social and political state of the world. Her short fiction includes interrogations of class-based, racial, and ableist prejudice, disconcerting portrayals of the social and political anxiety surrounding the Second World War, satirical eviscerations of some of the most oppressive social norms of the mid-twentieth century, and bold suggestions that lesbian desire, queer relationships, and female autonomy have a valid place in American culture. Through her depictions of differently-abled, sexually nonconforming characters, as well as characters of various races and classes, her short fiction redefines notions of belonging in the modern social context. The chapters within this collection provide new scholarly avenues to McCullers and will compel readers to rethink their own responses to McCullers's shorter works.
