Good. The definition fits my expectation. But what does it mean to you to be a "Durkheim" trufan? Are we speaking of the Durkheim who wrote Suicide, the Durkheim who wroteThe Divison of Labor in Society, the Durkheim who wrote Rules of Sociological Method, the Durkheim who wrote The Elementary Forms of the Religious Life, or all of the above?

Q: What is the correct pronunciation of “Mauss”?
A: In french ‘au’ turns to ‘o’; the doubled s turns the unpronounced s to a pronounced which makes ‘mos’ with an o like in option and a sharp s. A german pronounciation would b quite harder to explain to an anglosaxon.
