He also wrote about the Arthaśāstra and Indian politics" (Stache-Weiske 1990: 121). Among his main contributions to the former are Vedische Mythologie (3 volumes, 1891, 1899, 1902) and Ritualliteratur (see below); among his contributions to the latter are his edition of Višākhadatta's Mudrārākṣasa and his study of Kautilya's Arthaśāstra, Altindische Politik.
