Un nonato diccionario gitano decimonónico: el Rotañulario dor Sersén al Calorró y de andalló al Sersén de Joaquín Simán (Pero Grullo)

The paper presents an interesting story of a failed lexicographical project of a serial Spanish Para-Romani dictionary in the middle of the 19th century. All evidences point to the fact that the project did not come from any philological interests of its author but it was instead meant as a sources of financial support for political purposes that had nothing to do with Roma people or even philology. The project failed but the sample that was meant to attract possible subscribers was used a couple of years later by other author for his own dictionary.
