Résumé :
Of the variety of travellers in Britain, circus people belong in a special category. Unlike travelling businessmen, visitors or most tourists, they travel permanently, but in contrast to homeless vagrants, they have a home in their caravans. Together with fairground travellers and various categories of Gypsies, circus people comprise the ‘nomads’ of modern Britain (for classification of travellers see Cohen 1974: 534).
