Introduction to Algebraic Geometry

Focusing on qualitative algebraic geometry, this book serves as an introduction to the Weil-Zariski framework, expanding on lectures from a series of courses initiated by Zariski. It provides a comprehensive overview of Weil's "Foundations" and contextualizes the development of modern algebraic geometry prior to the introduction of sheaves. This reprint preserves the original text, offering readers an authentic experience of the foundational concepts in the field.
