Evangelical ethnographers and English Gypsies from the 1790s to the 1830s
Between 1792 and 1836 the Christian evangelists Thomas Tattershall, John Hoyland, Thomas Blackley, Samuel Roberts, and James Crabb published accounts of their efforts to ‘improve’ English Gypsies. Though their missionary activities failed, their writings preserve valuable ethnographic observations about pre-Victorian Gypsies. This article examines the prejudices, impressions, and influence of these five authors, and the information about Gypsies that their accounts and surveys yield.
期刊介绍:
Founded in 1888, the Journal of the Gypsy Lore Society was published in four series up to 1982. In 2000, the journal became Romani Studies. On behalf of the Gypsy Lore Society, Romani Studies features articles on many different communities which, regardless of their origins and self-appellations in various languages, have been referred to in English as Gypsies. These communities include the descendants of migrants from the Indian subcontinent which have been considered as falling into three large subdivisions, Dom, Lom, and Rom. The field has also included communities of other origins which practice, or in the past have practiced, a specific type of service nomadism. The journal publishes articles in history, anthropology, ethnography, sociology, linguistics, art, literature, folklore and music, as well as reviews of books and audiovisual materials.
