Abstract: Abstract The most important works in projective geometry following closely on Poncelet’s 1822 work were A. Moebius’s Der Barycentrische Calcul (1827) and Jacob Steiner’s Systematische Entwickelungder Abhängikeit geometrischer Gestalten von einander (1832). Moebius introduced the term collineation and studied collineations of the plane by means of barycentric coordinates, a type of homogeneous coordinates that we will examine in Chap. 13 .
