Traveller-Gypsies

Delve into the intriguing world of the Traveller-Gypsies with Judith Okely's insightful exploration published by Cambridge University Press in 1983. In this compelling examination, Okely challenges the widely held notion that Gypsies once lived in isolated communities, boasting a self-sufficient culture and economy that has been diminished by industrialization and Western capitalism. Over 260 pages, the author provides a fresh perspective on the social and cultural dynamics of the Gypsy community, inviting readers to reconsider historical narratives and assumptions. This thought-provoking paperback is a must-have for those interested in anthropology, cultural studies, and the complexities of Gypsy life in a changing world.
