A chapter in Basic Algebraic Geometry 2, 1994, pp 233-251 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This sketch makes no pretence at a systematic treatment of the history of algebraic geometry. It aims only to describe in very broad terms how the ideas and notions discussed in the book came to be created. Because of this, when discussing the research of this or that mathematician we often omit to mention important works, sometimes even his or her most important works, if they do not bear on the contents of our book.
