Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Chess-Play: A New Treatise on the Game of Chess The tone In which an author handles his subject, and the rating he bears on the ship's books by public admission, must ever be taken into consideration, in judging how far he has rightly exercised his privilege to borrow from his neigh bours, and equals only, in knowledge.

Download or read book The Art of the Game of Chess written by Ruy López and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2020-07-10 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of the Game of Chess is the first English translation of Fr. Ruy López’s 1561 book about chess, Libro de la invención liberal y arte del juego del ajedrez. López was a priest who served as King Philip II’s confessor and royal advisor. As a connoisseur of chess, King Philip II promoted the game in his court, and it did not take long for López to become known as Spain’s and one of Europe’s greatest chess players. López is widely acclaimed as one of the most influential chess thinkers of all time whose theories of chess are an integral part of how chess is played today. Academics, including historians, linguists, sociologists, and Hispanists, as well as non-academics, especially chess enthusiasts, will appreciate this translation, which opens with a Foreword by Andrew Soltis, who is a Grandmaster and a United States Chess Hall of Fame Inductee, and includes a critical introduction and more than 275 footnotes.

Download or read book Chess Fundamentals Classic Reprint written by Jose R. Capablanca and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chess Fundamentals C Izess Fundamentals was first published thirteen years ago. Since then there have appeared at different times a number of articles dealing with the so-called Hyper modern Theory. Those who have read the articles may well have thought that something new, of vital importance, had been discovered. The fact is that the Hypermodern Theory is merely the application, during the opening stages generally, of the same old principles through the medium of somewhat new tactics. There has been no change in the fundamentals. The change has been only a change of form, and not always for the best at that. In chess the tactics may change but the strategic fundamental principles are always the same, so that Chess Fundamentals is as good now as it was thirteen years ago. It will be as good a hundred years from now; as long in fact as the laws and rules of the game remain what they are at present. The reader may therefore go over the contents of the book with the assurance that there is in it everything he needs, and that there is nothing to be added and nothing to be changed. Chess Fundamentals was the one standard work of its kind thirteen years ago and the author firmly believes that it is the one standard work of its kind now.
