	Gordon, Caroline Criticism and Essays
		Gordon's fiction is remarkable for its evocation of nature, its historic focus on the Western frontier and antebellum South, and its emphasis on humanity's mystical connection with the land.
		Gordon was born on her grandmother's farm, Meriwether, in southern Kentucky near the Tennessee border.
		Gordon's early fiction was influenced by her association with Southern Agrarianism—a literary movement, fomenting during the 1920s and 1930s, which resisted the encroaching industrialization on the South's traditional, agrarian society and emphasized the region's history.

	Ann Waldron - Close Connections: Caroline Gordon and the Southern Renaissance
		Gordon had the dubious honor of cooking and cleaning for virtually every American literary figure of that time--she insisted on doing it, often at the expense of being able to revise and polish her manuscripts to her satisfaction.
		Compassionate and unusually thorough, Ann Waldron's biography of Caroline Gordon portrays a complex individual, the artist and the woman, with a fierce temper, a love of gardening, and a passion for two things: fiction and Allen Tate, whom she married twice--and divorced twice.
		Although Gordon always had a writing room in each of the many houses in which {she and her huband Allen Tate} lived and entertained,a life of her own has proved difficult for Ann Waldron to extract from the general bookish racket surrounding it.

	Mythic Consciousness, Cultural Politics: The Early Novels of Caroline Gordon Southern Quarterly - Find Articles
		Gordon's case is particularly noteworthy because of its apparently laden contradictions.
		By contrast, I propose that Gordon's reduction of fl characters and privileging of aristocratic white Southern women's experiences, perspectives, and growth in her early writing amplify Gordon's advocacy of the materialist interests of aristocratic white Southern women, at least throughout her early career, which began in the undertow of encroaching modernity.
		I investigate Gordon's mythic consciousness, or as one critic puts it, the technical "shifts and expedients" she uses in her writing to resuscitate the past as if it "were our world of today and here" (Collins 500).

	Caroline Gordon, Aleck Maury, and the Heroic Cycle Southern Quarterly - Find Articles
		Except for young Caroline, the school's student body was all male, but as it was founded by and presided over by her father, James Maury Morris Gordon, an early effort at coeducation was made in her case.
		Gordon was able to extend both her Latin and her Greek at Bethany, taking year-long courses focused on Homer, Plato, Thucydides, and the dramatists (Makowsky 33-34).
		Gordon and Tate were married the following spring, thus creating one of the most productive households in modern American letters, though the ceremony did not anticipate the birth of their only child Nancy sufficiently to escape the supercilious notice of the Meriwether family (Waldron 44).

	Caroline Gordon
		Born into a farm family in Todd County, Kentucky, on October 6, 1895, Caroline Gordon grew up in the comfort of the plantations of the Old South where women served as gracious hostesses to their husbands and fathers.
		In turn, Gordon offered her literary friends anonymity and a safe harbor from the often cruel and demanding sea in which they lived, a place where they could create their future masterpieces without fear of rejection or ridicule.
		Even though Gordon won the Guggenheim Award in 1932 and the O Henry Award in 1934, she had difficulty thinking of herself as a talented writer.

	Gordon, Caroline - including Faunce & Parker
		For critics of Ann Gordon's female factory management, and convict and free factory inmates and former inmates etc. with the inclination, the identity of the father of her daughter Caroline's children was similarly a target for scuttlebut and rumour.
		The church christening record for Caroline's son, and indeed the birth indexes for all the children baptised in the colony of NSW during those years, fully support the "R.B." marginal comment as there are none indexed who were baptised "Richard Bourke".
		Caroline's birth in Portsmouth, England is based on the 40 years of age given in her church parish death record and the 14 years in the 1828 census of New South Wales - both calculate to a 1813 birth year.

	The Memphis Flyer: Book - August 19 - 25, 1999
		On the evidence of the letters, though, that title is something of a misnomer because the ongoing topic in these pages isn't literature, it's living, and in the Depression years, that meant scrounging even in the case of a writer as masterful as Ford.
		In the case of Gordon, however, that meant far worse: a stint, following her husband, to the ends, according to her telling, of the earth: the campus of Southwestern at Memphis.
		Gordon to Ford by way of Janice Biala, his companion, 1932: "Gertrude [Stein] told Allen she was sorry he had given up writing poetry as he seemed to know something about it."

	In memoriam: Gordon Millar \| Democracy for New Hampshire
		We met Gordon and Caroline at a Dover visability and were taken by their dedication and commitment to purpose.
		We met both Gordon and Caroline quite a number of years ago while on the early morning pursuit of treasure.Many mornings through early spring until late fall(and a few freezing winter days too!) we would line up before a tag, barn, or garage sale and pass the time together before the sale would open.
		Gordon, I believe, would want all of us to move on reach for the sky, tow the line, pound the ground, hold the signs and make the calls for our futures and for all DEMOCRATIC principles, values.

	TIME.com: Literary Guerrilla -- Nov. 1, 1937 -- Page 1
		To this rebel activity Caroline Gordon has contributed a five-generation family chronicle (Penhally), a novel glorifying the unindustrialized purity of a sportsman (Aleck Maury: Sportsman), a recent Civil War novel (None Shall Look Back)—thus following the approved regionalist tactics of firing from the safely concealed ambush of the South's past.
		That few casualties bite the dust is due chiefly to Guerrilla-Author Gordon's scattering fire, in her overanxiety to wipe out the entire enemy at one try.
		To readers who may complain at the chaotic literary result of these shifts, Author Gordon's story argues that it is nothing compared to the living chaos of Southern life since the invasion of the North.
