Zigeuner Unterwegs Von Charles Baudelaire Und Zigeuner Von Georg Trakl. Zur Kulturellen Adaptation Einer Ethnie

In the article an attempt has been undertaken to analyse two poems: Gypsies on the Road (Bohémiens en voyage) by Charles Baudelaire and Gypsies (Zigeuner) by Georg Trakl. The Gypsies are an ethnic group whose existence is marked by the never-ending wandering. Changing places of residence, they are confronted with symbols of the Antique and the Christian culture. Though the world of the European civilisation offers them its values, the Gypsies hold to their own tradition that gives them happiness and safeness.
