Description
Summary:In this article, the author addresses a topic hardly understood previously, despite the resonance of its literary canonical names. Since the foundational publication and rapid translation and circulation of Heinrich Moritz Gottlieb Grellmann’s Dissertation on the Gypsies, Being an Historical Enquiry concerning the Manner of Life, The OEconomy, Customs and Conditions of these People in Europe, and their Origin (London, 1787), early grand examples of a Romantic image of the gypsy interacted in producing the background of Pushkin’s unpublished Preface to his poem The Gypsies. In analyzing anew the Western European, Bessarabian and Russian sources, this contribution tries to unfold the early production of a long-lasting stereotype, combining the methods of sociology, cultural studies, and the history of (religious) ideas.
