dc.description.abstractIrish Travellers, a group of migrant people distinct from the settled Irish society, have been present as a motif theme in Irish cultural representations for centuries. Very little is known about their origin, or about their culture, consequently Travellers are surrounded with an aura of mystery and are treated with fear as well as with curiosity. They occupy a liminal position in society just as in their cultural representations: they appear as elusive figures, hard to categorise. From the sixteenth century on up to the present, Travellers, also called as Tinkers, have been continuously represented in Irish literature an an ambiguous way. They appear in folk and fairy tales, children’s books and various kinds of fiction, especially in Gothic fiction, poetry, drama, film, and in various kinds of other texts. Maintaining the ancient harmony with nature, even though living in the dirt of the modern world, Tinkers and their extraordinary lifestyle is both depicted as sympathetic and unsympathetic ways in various cultural narratives.hu_HU
