What is the page called at the beginning of a book?

A preface, prologue, and foreword are all a part of a book's front matter, the introductory pages of a book before the main text—often numbered with Roman numerals—that include the title page and table of contents.

What are two pages in a book called?

Recto and verso

When you open a book anywhere, you'll see two pages: a left-hand page and a right-hand page, which face each other. These two pages together are called a spread.
