Sinopsis

An incredible season for algebraic geometry flourished ináItaly between 1860, when Luigi Cremona was assigned the chairáof Geometria Superiore in Bologna, and 1959, when FrancescoáSeveri published the last volume of the treatise on algebraicásystems over a surface and an algebraic variety. Thisácentury-long season has had a prominent influence on theáevolution of complex algebraic geometry - both at the national and international levels - and still inspires modern researcháin the area. 'Algebraic geometry in Italy between traditionáand future' is a collection of contributions aiming atápresenting some of these powerful ideas and their connectionáto contemporary and, if possible, future developments, such as Cremonian transformations, birational classification ofáhigh-dimensional varieties starting from Gino Fano, the life andáworks of Guido Castelnuovo, Francesco SeveriâÇÖs mathematicalálibrary, etc. The presentation is enriched by the viewpointáof various researchers of the history of mathematics, who describe the cultural milieu and tell about the bios of some ofáthe most famous mathematicians of those times.
