Alfred Hettner

(1859 – 1941)

Alfred Hettner, a German geographer

  • a regional geographer, known for his concept of chorology, the study of places and regions
  • remembered for his methodological contributions to geography, according to Hettner the study of geography should contain description and explanation derived either analytically or synthetically
  • rejected the notion of geography as a general earth science and argued for a chorological geography with regional synthesis
  • supported the viewpoint of Strabo, claimed that geography is an idiographic (regional) rather thanĀ  monothetic (systematic/general)
  • advocated that geography must deal with both unique things (regional geography) and with the universal (general geography), but regions – especially in the approach
  • Ā elaborated on the importance of the distribution of phenomena and stressed the significance of regional geography
  • believed that a geographer is required to study material phenomena as well as many immaterial (race, ethnicity, religion, language, customs, traditions, etc.)
  • this theory of uniqueness (regional geography) attracted the attention of German Geographers for decades
  • his fieldwork concentrated mainly on Colombia, Chile and Russia, apart from Europe
