Jules Verne (1828 - 1905) was a French writer who wrote more than 100 works during his 77 years of life, his stories became known as “extraordinary trips” and gained fame and prestige around the world. Verne presented the world with adventures loaded with scientific and geographic content perceived in the relationships of his characters with nature and society. Considering his historical context where Imperialism was growing and he used science to his advantage, Jules Verne brought his work beyond that context, which led us to seek to understand the role of geography in his work. Thus, from the exercise of hermeneutics, we sought to understand the subject Jules Verne from his work, combining geosophy to understand the history of geography, which leads us to two of its main influencing geographers, Alexander von Humboldt (1769 - 1859) and Elisée Reclus (1830 - 1905). The first considered father of modern geography, sought to understand the relationships that configured nature from the concept of geographical landscape, Elisée Reclus in turn developed a liberating geography that reflected unequal social relations in the world. Verne lived in a historical context in which part of the geographical production was limited to cartography, serving the exploratory aspirations of the State. In addition to this context, Verne first brought into his literature the geographical landscape of Humboldt, rich in details and highly fluid, later incorporated a reflection on the society in which he lives, bringing revolts and adventures with characters who fight and live for his freedom.
