Rroma are usually presented in a fragmentary and parcelled fashion, after all one has Rroma, Sinti and Cale and there are hundreds of so-called groups. The social organisation of these groups, their language, traditions all are presented as being fundamentally different.

Rroma are usually presented in a fragmentary and parcelled fashion, after all one has Rroma, Sinti and Cale and there are hundreds of so-called groups. The social organisation of these groups, their language, traditions all are presented as being fundamentally different. Thus, as a result, one gains the impression that the Rroma - or Gypsies - are not at all one ethno-cultural minority but a mosaic of different ones.
The book's concept can be summarised as a presentation of a unified view of the various Rroma groups, their history and culture. It regroups the various groups into four broad metagroups, based mostly on their common language and historical experience and we are underlining the common points rather than presenting the differences and small local variations. This overview in a single book of all the various Rroma groups is a first in the literature.
The main tool - and in this, this book differs from all other written so far - is the extensive use of Rromanes - the language of the Rroma - and its various dialects as well as of other languages to analyse and present a clear picture of the history of the Rroma from their Indian origins to the current times. Whenever the lack of documents and written traces about Rroma and their ancestors forces one in the realm of conjectures, the book turns to Rromanes as a thread and as a hint as the layered structure of this language, with various layers of new acquisitions and lexems provides one with the perfect analysis tool. Hence, the conclusions are sometimes different than the ones of other experts.
The entire book, gives Rroma a voice and, the comments and information from over hundred and fifty of them are included here. The book's aim is to present a European minority and culture to both the general public and specialists alike.
