Více o knize

This volume, part of the Roma series, features a collection of papers from the Annual Conference of the Gypsy Lore Society held in Chisinau, Moldova, showcasing diverse scientific areas in Romani studies, including history, anthropology, linguistics, education, and musicology. Notably, it highlights significant contributions from researchers in East European countries. The papers cover a range of topics, such as Maria Gloria Tumminelli's exploration of anti-Gypsy legislation in the Duchy of Milan during the Early Modern Age, and Марианна Смирнова-Сеславинская's analysis of the integration of "old-settled" Roma into Russia's social system in the 17th and 18th centuries. Viorel Achim examines petitions from Gypsy slaves in Romanian principalities, while Emine Dingeç discusses Gypsy perceptions in the Ottoman Empire. Additional contributions include studies on Gypsy guilds in the Balkans, the stance of authorities towards Roma during WWI in Croatia, and the oral history of Tatar Roma in Bulgaria. Other topics include the cultural memory of Romanian Roma’s deportation, customs among Kelderari Roma, marriage practices among Romani girls in Bulgaria, and research on Romani music in Finland. The volume also addresses issues in Roma education policies and the linguistic profile of Turkish-speaking children in Cyprus. ISBN 9783862887361. Roma 04. 266pp. 2016.
