Abstract
This volume collects the proceedings of the Italian Algebraic Geometry between Tradition and Future, an INdAM Workshop that was held in Rome on December 6–8, 2021. The Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica (INdAM) was founded by Francesco Severi who died on December 8, 1961. The workshop was also meant as a celebration of this anniversary. For these purposes, the contribution by Claudio Fontanari and Stefano Gattei is a homage to Severi’s mathematical library at INdAM, with a list of 1400 items, which reflects Severi’s life and works. Indeed, as recalled by Leonard Roth (Francesco Severi. Obituary note. Journal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 38, Issue 1, 1963, pp. 282–307, https://londmathsoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1112/jlms/s1-38.1.282, p. 282–283.).
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
