Note 1130 — Chapter XIII · ARTIFICIAL PERIODS OF TIME. FEASTS.
F. J. Fielden translation
Cp. Mauss, Essai sur les variations saisonnières des sociétés Eskimos, L’année sociologique, 9, 1904–5, pp. 96 ff. That the time of freedom from work should become a festival time is obvious and is simpler than Mauss seems to think; the point deserved noting among other peoples also.
