Abstract

Exactly one century ago, in the spring of 1902, the prestigious mathematical journal Acta Mathematica, decided to mark the centenary of Abel’s birth by dedicating three issues to the memory of this Norwegian mathematician. Some of the most influential Italian mathematicians of the day were invited to contribute to these issues. Among those invited were Guido Castelnuovo, at the time the most wellknown representative of the Italian school of algebraic geometry, and Federigo Enriques. Enriques, at first, accepted the invitation and, as he communicated to Castelnuovo, decided to write … una specie di Bericht, breve, intorno ai nostri lavori, in cui mi propongo di esporre la teoria sotto l’aspetto analitico.
