It reconstructs the history of \u2018gypsy\u2019 representations in film since the birth of the medium providing a systematic film-theoretical analysis of their aesthetic and social functions. Based on a corpus of over 150 works from European and US cinema, it is shown that \u2018gypsy\u2019-themed feature films share the pattern of an \u2018ethno-racial\u2019 masquerade, irrespective of the place and time of their origin. The author thus expands the research, concentrated until now in the field of literature, with another art form, film, opening up new dimensions of (popular) cultural antigypsyism.<\/p>\n<p>This new study is already the third volume in the series &#8220;Interdisciplinary Studies in Antigypsyism&#8221; initiated by the Research Centre on Antigypsyism at the Heidelberg University. Radmila Mladenova&#8217;s fundamental work &#8211; published in English &#8211; critically revisits antiziganist constructions in film, which will certainly generate a long overdue discussion among filmmakers and media scholars alike, at both the German and European levels.<br \/>\nLike all volumes in this series, Radmila Mladenova&#8217;s monograph is freely available under Creative Commons License 4.0 and is also available in hardcover.
