Carcosa is a fictional city in Ambrose Bierce's short story "An Inhabitant of Carcosa" (1886). The ancient and mysterious city is barely described and is viewed only in hindsight (after its destruction) by a character who once lived there. American writer Robert W. Chambers borrowed the name "Carcosa" for his stories, inspiring generations of authors to similarly use Carcosa in their own works.

  • Карко́за (англ. Carcosa) — вымышленный город из рассказа Амброза Бирса «Житель Каркозы» (1886). В рассказе Каркоза — это древний и загадочный город, развалины которого созерцает душа героя после физической смерти. Город почти не описан и рассматривается только после его разрушения. Американский писатель Роберт Чемберс позаимствовал название «Каркоза» для своих рассказов, которые вошли в сборник «Король в жёлтом», вдохновив тем самым поколения авторов аналогичным образом использовать Каркозу в своих произведениях.

  • Carcosa est une cité imaginaire qui apparaît pour la première fois dans une nouvelle d'Ambrose Bierce, Un habitant de Carcosa, puis est citée à plusieurs reprises dans les nouvelles du recueil Le Roi en Jaune de Robert W. Chambers. Il est repris par Alan Moore dans sa bande dessinée Neonomicon, cette fois Carcosa désigne à la fois Nyarlathotep (divinité majeure du panthéon de H.P.Lovecraft) et le Roi en Jaune. Le nom a été aussi repris dans True Detective, série télévisée d'anthologie américaine, créée et écrite par Nic Pizzolatto. (fr)
