15/09/2023 – Nos contaba Felipe Martín en su blog "MetaJaque" que en 'Birth of the Chess Queen' (Harper, 2004), la escritora norteamericana Marilyn Yalom "recorrió país a país, siglo a siglo, las huellas de la Dama, una pieza que fue imponiéndose en los tableros de ajedrez de Europa a partir del siglo XVI. Yalom encuentra un correlato con episodios concretos de protagonismo político femenino, ya fueran reinas consortes, reinas viudas, reinas regentes o reinas titulares, entendiendo Reina en el sentido más amplio de Señora, Dómina, Dama…" ¿Podría ser el origen de esta pieza una reina de la Corona de Aragón? +++ La publicación de la noticia ha causado polémica y reacciones de otras fuentes. Hemos agregado los comentarios a continuación de la noticia original. +++ | Imagen: portada del libro 'La Variante Valenciana de la Defensa Escandinavia'
26/01/2023 – Desde comienzos del siglo XXI, el consenso actual de la historiografía especializada en el ajedrez sitúa el nacimiento del moderno (u occidental) en el antiguo Reino de Valencia, en pleno Siglo de Oro Valenciano. El escritor y ajedrecista segorbino Francesc Vicent fue el autor del primer tratado conocido sobre el ajedrez moderno, el Llibre dels jochs partits dels scachs en nombre de 100, impreso en Valencia el 15 de mayo de 1495 en la imprenta de Lope de Roca Alemany y Pere Trincher. Es por ello por lo que, según el consenso mayoritario, está considerado el fundador del ajedrez moderno. Reproducción del artículo por Sergi N. De Arenas y MF Francisco Rubio, publicado en la revista de ajedrez "Peón de Rey" no. 162 (enero/febrero 2023). | Imagen: Revista "Peón de Rey" no. 162 (enero/febrero de 2023)
Videos: Luis Engel (Nimzo-Indian with 4.e3 0-0 5.Bd2) and Romain Edouard ("Critical lines in the Dragon" Part IV). "Lucky bag" with analyses by Anish Giri, Viktor Moskalenko, Michal Krasenkow, Lubomir Ftacnik and many others.
The videos deal with the exciting French Advance Variation, starting with 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.e5. Besides numerous sidelines, the main focus is on the two most played systems with 3...c5 4.c3 Nc6 5.Nf3 Qb6 and 5...Bd7.
The Kupreichik starts with 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Bd7. It is a flexible move, as it doesn’t tell white much about the set-up black will choose. Most often black goes for a Dragon or a Classical Sicilian set-up.
More than 1 million games from the engine room of playchess.com form the basis of the English Opening Powerbook 2023, with in addition 123 000 games from Mega and from correspondence chess.
