Summary: "Nouvelle géographie universelle (1/19)" by Elisée Reclus is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work presents a comprehensive examination of the Earth and its inhabitants, diving into the geography of various regions, starting with Southern Europe including countries like Greece, Turkey, Romania, and Italy. The book aims to explore the intricate relationship between humans and their environment, highlighting how geographical factors influence societies and civilizations. The opening of the work discusses the concept of Earth as a seemingly infinite space yet to be fully explored by humans. Reclus emphasizes the limitations of current geographical knowledge and the significant role that nature, including topography and climate, plays in shaping the lives of different peoples. He addresses the large gaps in understanding various cultures and environments, lamenting the obstacles posed by natural barriers and human conflicts. Ultimately, this section sets the stage for a deeper exploration of how geography influences human civilization and culture, making it clear that a truly universal geography requires collaborative, ongoing examination of both the land and its people.
