On the Processes of Narrative Reworking in Spanish Gitano Tradition: Imagological Self-Representation
-
David Mañero-Lozano
Abstract
My aim is to analyze a corpus of Spanish gitano stories in which the phenomenon of self-representation arises and involves, among other concepts, auto-images and hetero-images, that is, the stereotyped images or imagotypes that a given group has of itself and others. I will examine various processes by means of which the heritage assimilated and transformed is perceived by the gitanos as belonging to their own culture.
Zusammenfassung
Mein Ziel ist es, einen Korpus spanischer Gitano-Geschichten zu analysieren, in denen das Phänomen der Selbstdarstellung vorkommt, das unter anderem Selbstbilder und eine Außensicht von Vorurteilen beinhaltet, also der stereotypen Bilder oder Imagotypen, die eine bestimmte Gruppe von sich selbst und anderen hat. Ich werde verschiedene Prozesse untersuchen, mit denen das erbliche und transformierte Erbe von den Gitanos als ihrer eigenen Kultur wahrgenommen wird.
