He is considered a leading specialist on Humboldt’s original scientific approach and extremely prolific work. Whereas Alexander von Humboldt has always been a well-known figure in the Americas, German reception had been heavily focused on the philological work of his older brother, Wilhelm von Humboldt. Ette’s new editions of Alexander’s colourful reports from his voyages have led to a more evenly balanced reception of the work of the two polymaths Alexander and Wilhelm von Humboldt. As early as 1987, Ette’s work on Alexander von Humboldt earned him the “Heinz- Maier-Leibnitz” Award from the German Ministry of Culture and the German Research Association DFG. In the English-speaking world, Ottmar Ette and Vera M. Kutzinski (Vanderbildt University) recently published two critical editions of Humboldt’s works: in 2011, the “Political Essay on the Island of Cuba; in 2012, the “Views of the Cordilleras and Monuments of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas”, both titles published with the University of Chicago Press.
