* In ending I should like to correct an error in the published text of “Kingship and Caste”: on page 54 sufficient appears where the word should have been insufficient, so that the text should have read: ‘[…] then a sideration of the structural principle of purity and pollution by itself is insufficient for an understanding of caste.’
