Sinopsis de THE ROMANY RYE

In "The Romany Rye," George Borrow masterfully weaves a captivating narrative that blends autobiography, ethnography, and fiction, set against the backdrop of 19th-century England. This sequel to "Lavengro" continues the journey of the protagonist, an essential figure representing Borrow himself, as he immerses into the vibrant culture of the Romani people. Employing rich, poetic prose and a keen eye for detail, Borrow explores themes of identity, belonging, and the often-misunderstood Romani lifestyle, revealing their unique customs and language through the lens of both affection and critique. The literary style reflects Borrows inherent romanticism and deep appreciation for the oral traditions that characterize Romani culture, establishing a foundation that resonates with the romanticism and realism of his time. George Borrow (1803-1881), an enigmatic figure and fervent advocate for the Romani community, drew upon his firsthand experiences and love for language to pen "The Romany Rye." His encounters with Romani people during his travels across England profoundly influenced his work, and his commitment to cultural understanding shines through in this novel. Considering himself an outsider and a seeker, Borrows love for the Romani lifestyle deeply permeates his narrative, making it an extension of his personal philosophy and beliefs about freedom and acceptance. For readers seeking an engaging exploration of cultural identity and a journey into the heart of Romani life, "The Romany Rye" is an essential read. Borrows skillful storytelling and rich descriptions not only entertain but also illuminate the complexities of social dynamics and personal freedom. This novel is a vital contribution to understanding the Romani people and remains relevant in contemporary discussions about cultural diversity and acceptance.

Escrito por George Borrow


George Borrow (East Dereham, 1803), viaxeiro, tradutor e escritor, manifesta dende novo o seu interese por coñecer as linguas do mundo. Aprende galés, danés, hebreo, árabe, armenio e alemán. Fai traducións e inicia unha vida errante que o leva a percorrer Inglaterra, onde entra en relación coa Sociedade Bíblica Británica e Estranxeira e, por conta dela, marcha a Rusia para aprender a lingua tártaro-manchú e traducir o Novo Testamento. Unha vez publicado, decide distribuílo el mesmo, percorrendo España metro a metro. Viaxa por Galicia durante o verán de 1837. En 1842 remata The Bible in Spain, o libro que tanta sona lle había de dar e do que agora Xerais publica a parte referida a Galicia.
