Corrado Segre and his Disciples. The Construction of an International Identity for the Italian School of Algebraic Geometry
Erika Luciano,Clara Silvia Roero +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors illustrate the international relationships of the Italian School of Algebraic Geometry in the period of formation (1883-1891) through the reconstruction of Segre's partnerships with American scholars, and show how he took on the role of a "Maestro a distanza" or "distance Maestro" for foreign geometers up to the first years of 20th century.

Segre and the Foundations of Geometry: From Complex Projective Geometry to Dual Numbers
TL;DR: In this article, a projective hyperspatial geometry on an algebra with zero-divisors was proposed, based on the work of von Staudt and Fano, Enriques, Pieri, and Amodeo.
Models in mathematical teaching in Italy (1850-1950)
TL;DR: The lack of interest in designing and making models for teaching at the university level at the turn of the twentieth century in Italy, and its causes, is dealt with.

Segre’s University Courses and the Blossoming of the Italian School of Algebraic Geometry
TL;DR: One of the greatest architects of the geometric Risorgimento in Italy, Corrado Segre provides a shining example of the role of mentor in the history of mathematics as mentioned in this paper.
