The Gitanilla Or The Children Of The Zincali: A Drama, In Three Acts (1860) is a play written by John Crawford Wilson. The story revolves around a young gypsy girl named Preciosa, who is taken in by a wealthy nobleman and raised as his own daughter. Despite her privileged upbringing, Preciosa remains deeply connected to her gypsy roots and falls in love with a fellow gypsy named Juan. However, their love is challenged by societal norms and the disapproval of Preciosa's adoptive father. The play explores themes of identity, love, and the clash between different cultures and classes. With its vivid portrayal of gypsy life and customs, The Gitanilla Or The Children Of The Zincali offers a unique glimpse into a fascinating and often misunderstood subculture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
