DESCRIPTION:This lecture will be an intuitive\, geometrical approach to the
  concept of curvature. Beginning from two-dimensional curvature\, it will 
 then go on to discuss space curves and curved surfaces. We will consider t
 he major results of Gauss' General Investigations of Curved Surfaces\, in 
 particular the Theorema Egregium\, showing that curvature is an intrinsic 
 property of surfaces. At the end we will consider the importance of Gauss'
  work for non-Euclidean geometry (Lobachevsky) and Einstein's theory of ge
 neral relativity.
