Algebraic geometry between tradition and future : an Italian perspective

Algebraic geometry between tradition and future : an Italian perspective / Gilberto Bini, editor.

An incredible season for algebraic geometry flourished in Italy between 1860, when Luigi Cremona was assigned the chair of Geometria Superiore in Bologna, and 1959, when Francesco Severi published the last volume of the treatise on algebraic systems over a surface and an algebraic variety. This cent...
