Description

Challenge common misconceptions about the Roma community with Romani Writing: Literacy, Literature and Identity Politics. While popular culture often portrays the Roma as an illiterate group, this Routledge research book explores the deep connection the Roma have with literacy and its many uses. This work examines how Romani writers use the written word for diverse purposes. Some authors utilize an oral style in their writing to deconstruct anti-Gypsy stereotypes, while others use literature as a tool for identity-building. For Romani activists and intellectuals, writing serves as a way to establish a shared identity and introduce a community perspective to the wider world. This book is an essential resource for those studying language, literacy, and identity politics. It provides a necessary look at how writing functions as a means of expression and resistance within the Romani culture, moving beyond outdated stereotypes to reveal a complex and sophisticated relationship with the written medium.
