Introduction
ThemodernperiodofprobabilitytheoryisconnectedwithnameslikeS.N.
Bernstein(1880-1968),E.Borel(1871-1956),andA.N.Kolmogorov(1903-
1987).Inparticular,in1933A.N.Kolmogorovpublishedhismodernap-
proachofProbabilityTheory,includingthenotionofameasurablespace
andaprobabilityspace.Thislecturewillstartfromthisnotion,tocontinue
withrandomvariablesandbasicpartsofintegrationtheory,andtofinish
withsomefirstlimittheorems.
Thelectureisbasedonamathematicalaxiomaticapproachandisintended
