Ciganski romansero

From the conflict between the desire for freedom and death comes a deep frustration that the Gypsies call the “Black Punishment”. This analysis and description of the Gypsy feeling for the “black punishment” is felt in her book by a certain Soledad Montoya, and we can feel her suffering in the following verses that we have put below: Although the Gypsy ballads are well known for speaking about a little-used theme such as the Gypsy world, the truth is that It is not the only theme that the author, Federico García Lorca, has. In fact, throughout the 18 romances that make up the Romancero we can find different themes that should be familiar. The main one is of course the repression, abuse and life of the Gypsies, a people who have always been on the margins of society and who are oppressed and qualified with bad or negative adjectives for their lifestyle.
