Gypsies in Europe – Souha Korbatieh
Castlereagh Boutique Hotel (near Town Hall Station
March 10, 10:30am
Heathcliff is referred to as “that gipsy brat” and Rochester masquerades as “the Sybil” in his own home “to tell the gentry their fortunes”. Souha will examine the history of the gypsies in Europe and what such references tell us about the central characters, themes and issues of both novels whilst highlighting the plight of marginal classes and the dangers of romantic imaginings
