  Mauss, successor of Emile Durkheim and one-time teacher of Claude Levi-Strauss, continues to inspire social scientists across various disciplines. Only selected texts of Mauss's work have been translated into English, but of these, some, i.e. Essay on the Gift, have proved of key significance for the development of anthropology internationally.
