I studied Euclidean Geometry in high-school, and I have not studied anything relates to geometry since I started studying in university. I am now intending to study Algebraic Geometry, however, I lacked in geometric intuition, especially in projective aspect.

Could you please suggest me some text book about Projective Geometry(or Geometry in general) with a view toward Algebraic Geometry, or have promising intuition to Algebraic Geometry?

I am sorry if my poor English lead to any misunderstanding.

Thank for reading.

    Try Coxeter, Introduction to Geometry, which is a survey text meant for upper-division math majors.2012-02-07

    Coxeter also wrote a book called Projective Geometry (not the book about the real projective plane) which I think would be a better choice here, than Introduction to Geometry. The second edition of the Projective Geometry book was published by Springer.2012-02-07

    The 1st chapter of Pottmann's Computational Line Geometry helped me a lot (I was from a differential geometry background and you can imagine how difficult it is for me...). It treats all the classical results using linear algebra of matrices, which is great fun if you are good at linear algebra and matrices. Unfortunately, as the author admitted, it is very difficult to read (I read it four times) and I personally find some mistake too.2015-01-19
