Kant, Humboldt and Ritter
[edit | edit source]In line with his philosophies of space, Immanuel Kant was a key figure in the establishment of geography as a discipline. From 1757 to 1797, he lectured in physical geography at Konigsberg University. The course was popular among students, but Kant did not have a professorship in geography - the first chair of geography was given to Carl Ritter in 1820.
It was the works of Carl Ritter and Alexander von Humboldt that marked the birth of modern geography. In Ritter's book Die Erdkunde, he used a regional approach to depict the earth as the home of humans.
