"The Theory of Environment" by Armin Hajman Koller is an academic dissertation written in the early 20th century. This work outlines the historical development of the concept of milieu or environment and examines its current significance within various disciplines. The book delves into the intricate relationship between human societies and their physical, social, and cultural environments, suggesting that our surroundings significantly shape our characteristics and behaviors. The opening of the dissertation provides insights into Koller’s motivations for writing and sets the stage for his exploration of the term "milieu." He begins by defining the word and tracing its origins in scientific literature, noting its evolution from a physical concept to a broader social context. Koller acknowledges the contributions of various scholars to the understanding of milieu, such as Hippocrates and Montesquieu, and hints at a more extensive inquiry into how societies have been influenced by their respective environments throughout history. This initial section establishes a scholarly foundation for Koller’s subsequent examination of how the concept has been interpreted and utilized in modern studies.
