Summary: "Gypsy Folk-Tales" by Francis Hindes Groome is a collection of folklore narratives published in the late 19th century. The work seeks to preserve and present various folk-tales from the Gypsy culture, reflecting the rich oral tradition that encompasses a wide range of themes, characters, and moral lessons integral to Gypsy life. Groome’s interest in Gypsy folklore underscores a desire to document these tales, especially in light of their declining interest among folklorists of his time. The opening of "Gypsy Folk-Tales" sets the stage for Groome’s journey into the world of Gypsy culture, mentioning his attempts to engage folklorists in the significance of these stories over the past two decades. In a detailed preface, Groome discusses the widespread presence of Gypsies in Europe, their nomadic history, and the challenges they face as a culture. He pays homage to influential figures in the field of folklore and acknowledges the contributions of various scholars who have supported his efforts. This introduction prepares readers for a deeper exploration of the folk tales themselves, hinting at the cultural tapestry woven throughout the narratives that follow.
