Geography
Geography - (from the Greek words Geo (γη) or Gaea (γαία), both meaning "Earth", and graphein (γράφειν) meaning "to describe" or "to write"or "to map") is the study of the earth and its features, inhabitants, and phenomena. A literal translation would be "to describe or write about the Earth". The first person to use the word "geography" was Eratosthenes (275-195 B.C.). Four historical traditions in geographical research are the spatial analysis of natural and human phenomena (geography as a study of distribution), area studies (places and regions), study of man-land relationship, and research in earth sciences. Nonetheless, modern geography is an all-encompassing discipline that foremost seeks to understand the world and all of its human and natural complexities-- not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be. As "the bridge between the human and physical sciences," geography is divided into two main branches - human geography and physical geography.

Géographie
Au sens étymologique, la géographie est l'étude de la surface de la Terre. Le mot, inventé par Ératosthène pour un ouvrage aujourd'hui perdu, provient du grec ancien "η γη" (hê gê) la Terre et "γραφειν" (graphein) écrire. Pour les Grecs, c'est la description rationnelle de la Terre. Il s'agit d'une science qui répond à une curiosité nouvelle, et qui va déterminer la géopolitique en définissant les territoires à conquérir et à tenir. Pour Strabon, c'est la base de la formation de celui qui voulait décider.

Geographie
Die Geographie (auch: Geografie, griechisch Γεωγραφία geographia; γή „Erde“; γραφειν „kritzeln, schreiben, zeichnen“) ist . Sie beschreibt und erklärt also die räumlichen Strukturen und Vorgänge an der Erdoberfläche sowie deren Auswirkungen auf den Menschen und die raumwirksamen Handlungen der Menschen. Die Geographie bildet somit eine Nahtstelle zwischen den Natur- und den Sozialwissenschaften. Sie entwickelt Konzepte zum Verständnis und zur Lösung von Problemen zwischen Mensch und Umwelt. Diese übergreifende Betrachtungsweise kann man als den Kern der Geographie bezeichnen.

Geografia
La geografia (dal latino geographia, a sua volta dal greco antico, γῆ/γέα (Terra) e γράφειν (Scrivere), letteralmente, scrittura della terra) è la scienza che studia, interpreta, descrive e rappresenta la Terra nei suoi aspetti fisici e antropici, cioè negli organismi spaziali della sua superficie.La geografia è molto più che la cartografia, cioè lo studio delle mappe, e non è nemmeno lo studio di promontori e baie, non investiga solo su cosa e dove è sulla Terra, ma anche perché è lì e non da qualche altra parte, riferendosi alla sua "locazione nello spazio". Ne prende in esame le cause, sia naturali che umane, e studia le conseguenze che questi fatti determinano.
