I N T R 0 D U C T HON. r (i) mCXCLPPEDIC AND 1 LANDS CHAM" REGIONALISM When designing the: form of a monograph or disser• tation, the. regional geographer should follow two basic precepts; the presentation of work which has; a clear exposit• ions! shape, and the faithful analysis of an often complex set of spatial relationships. It has been found in the past a relatively easy matter to conform to one, but extremely difficult to fulfil both these requirements within a single academic excereise. Because there is;, to a large extent,- a dichotomy between both precepts, there has; often been an almost inevitable division within the field of regional geography. Tftose who follow the former tenet may be. called ' landschaft 1 regionalists;. those who' follow the latter, ' encyclopedic ' or 1 empirical 1 regionalists. The attempt has; rarely been made to discover a form of approach which steers a course between the Scylla of a catalogue of empirical facts and the ChaKybdis of an imposed " unity which is often not inherent in the regional unit.
