In this mini-course, I will talk about the fundamentals of projective geometry: affine and projective transformations, projective duality, double relation, pole and polar. We shall prove many famous theorems (such as Pascal, Brianchon, Pappa ...), we shall talk about algebraic curves and, in particular, about conic sections. If time allows, we shall discuss other examples of plane transformations, and the transformation group as a whole.
