Summary/Abstract: Beginning with an overview of the “basic” knowledge on Gypsies, the article develops further around different aspects of the issue of the “Roma culture”. The aim of the text is to clarify how a peculiar social and historical situation of this minority group has determined a specific form of its culture. Finally, the article puts into light the difficulties for the modernization of this group that are caused by the specific reactive form of its cultural traits.
