abstract:
In recent years it has been possible to begin the study of the archive of Guido Castelnuovo, one of the most important mathematicians of the Italian school of algebraic geometry. The archive contains a large scientific correspondence, only partially examined, and all the notebooks of lectures given by Castelnuovo in the courses of the last two years of the Italian degree (Laurea) in mathematics. In this paper we discuss the notebooks of the lectures. The history of the Italian school of algebraic geometry is greatly illuminated by this recent discovery
