This multi-authored monograph offers a state-of-the-art analysis of how translanguaging supports bilingual Roma students' learning in monolingual school systems. Co-written by academic and non-academic participants, it is an essential reading for researchers, pre- and in-service teachers of Romani-speaking students and experts working with students whose home languages are different from the teachers' and the school curricula.

This is the first typologically-oriented collection on Romani that is devoted to a particular thematic domain - that of noun phrase grammar. The approach taken is unique in that it places this typologically hybrid language in the centre of a general linguistic, universal discussion of the relevant noun phrase phenomena. The book is also the first assembly of articles to deal with Romani as a whole on the basis of cross-dialectal samples, offering areal-typological, dialectological, and historicalinterpretations. The individual contributions discuss morphological and syntactic aspects of nominal and pronominal inflection, definite articles, demonstratives, genitive compounding, external possession, pronominal object doubling and morphosyntactic alignment. Contributors include leading experts in the fields of noun phrase grammar, Romani dialectologists, typologists and historical linguists.

Approximately one thousand years ago Gypsies, or Roma, left their native India. Today Gypsies can be found in countries throughout the world, their distinct culture still intact in spite of the intense persecution they have endured. This authoritative collection brings together leading Gypsy and non-Gypsy scholars to examine the Romani legal system, an autonomous body of law based on an oral tradition and existing alongside dominant national legal networks. For centuries the Roma have survived by using defensive strategies, especially the absolute exclusion of gadje (non-Gypsies) from their private lives, their values, and information about Romani language and social institutions. Sexuality, gender, and the body are fundamental to Gypsy law, with rules that govern being pure (vujo) or impure (marime). Women play an important role in maintaining legal customs, having the power to sanction and to contaminate, but they are not directly involved in legal proceedings. These essays offer a comparative perspective on Romani legal procedures and identity, including topics such as the United States' criminalization of many aspects of Gypsy law, parallels between Jewish and Gypsy law, and legal distinctions between Romani communities. The contributors raise broad theoretical questions that transcend the specific Gypsy context and offer important insights into understanding oral legal traditions. Together they suggest a theoretical framework for explaining the coexistence of formal and informal law within a single legal system. They also highlight the ethical dilemmas encountered in comparative law research and definitions of "human rights."

Promotor e interveniente nas célebres "Conferências do Casino", historiador da literatura, introdutor em Portugal dos estudos linguísticos e da pedagogia, Adolfo Coelho (1847-1919) foi também - a par de Teófilo Braga, Consiglieri Pedroso, Leite de Vasconcelos e Rocha Peixoto - uma das figuras decisivas na constituido e desenvolvimento inicial da antropologia em Portugal. A cultura (...) cigana e a sua língua (...) constituem antes de mais urna curiosa possibilidade etnográfica: olhar o exótico no interior da cultura do observador. Efectivamente; embora partilhem os mesmos antepassados civilizacionais e lingüísticos que os seus hospedes europeus (...), os Ciganos apresentam uma organização social muito próxima da sua ascendêcia indiana, melhor dizendo, hindú e, nesta medida, irredutível à morfologia social predominante na Europa.
