Extract

A complete and satisfying account of the classification of pencils of binary cubics over an algebraically closed field was given by Newstead (2). Extending these results to the real case is not a matter of mere routine since new questions arise, for example the separation of roots of the cubics in a pencil (as well as their reality).
