This literary analysis of the representation of 'Gypsies' in
juvenile literature is unique in its comparative scope, as well as
in the special attention to rare pre-1850 narratives, the period in
which juvenile literature developed as a specific genre. Most
studies on the subject are about one national literary tradition or
confined to a limited period. In this study Dutch, English, French
and German texts are analysed and discussed with reference to main
academic publications on the subject. Emphasis is on the rich
variation in narrative presentations, rather than on an inventory
of images or prejudices. An important topic is the fundamental
difference between early English and German narratives. Important
because of the wide dissemination of German stories.
