Roma and Sinti in Europe a text by Gilda-Nancy HORVATH
Quite deliberately, after consultations with the Roma and Sinti community, we have chosen to keep the term »Gypsy« in the text of THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, but to mark it with quotation marks. The reason for this is that under the title »Gypsies«, Roma and Sinti, among others, were already persecuted and murdered before and during the Middle Ages. We do not want to make this historical fact invisible by removing the word pointing to it – rather, it should be shown and pointed out. We explicitly point out that »Gypsy« is a foreign term under which more than 500,000 Rom*nja and Sinti*zze were murdered under National Socialism.
