Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins.

    WORD TO THE READER

    "Chigorin is the founder of the Russian chess school, an outstanding theorist, and a contender for the world crown." How often we had to read and hear these words, which from frequent use were lost, began to seem an empty banality. Meanwhile, Mikhail Ivanovich Chigorin (1850-1908) was really the brightest creative personality. A gambling, fascinating person, he spared no effort and time to find the truth of chess, to solve the mysteries of an intricate opening or seemingly simple endgame position. In those early years, universality had not yet become a "vital necessity" in chess, and therefore every major master had a clearly defined individual style, with its own advantages and disadvantages. The Russian champion believed in the dynamic potential of figures, aspired to an open figure game, and willingly sacrificed material for initiative. His powerful opponent, Wilhelm Steinitz, put unshakable positional values above all else: the reliability of the pawn structure, the predominance in the center, the preponderance in space. Chigorin and Steinitz played two matches for the world championship, a lot of tournament and light games, but their fundamental dispute was not only at the chessboard. Polemically sharp, uncompromising discussions of these titans and their followers graced the pages of Newspapers and magazines of those years.

    Chigorin passionately loved chess, and he was depressed by the lack of public interest in this wise game in our country. He wanted to prove that chess is not an empty sport; it can become a life's work, a real profession. To show chess in the most favorable light and attract the attention of an enlightened public, Chigorin for ten years published, mostly at his own expense, the magazines "Chess leaf" (1876-81) and "Chess Bulletin" (1885-87). He was the main and sometimes the only author there. Needless to say, these most striking examples of Russian chess thought have long since become a bibliographic rarity.

    The modern reader is spoiled by an abundance of chess literature. However, without the historical aura that envelops the creative essence of the chess player, our inner world would be much poorer. The Russian chess house publishing house performs a real feat, giving everyone the opportunity to get acquainted with our priceless chess, historical and literary heritage. It is pleasant to note that the luxurious, elite performance of this four-volume edition has no analogues in the world chess literature.

    The book is dedicated to one of the greatest chess players in history, the participant of the first official match for the world championship, Johann Zuckertort. The high point of his brilliant career was a triumph at the largest international tournament in London in 1883, where he took first place, beating the runner-up Wilhelm Steinitz by three(!) points. In the subsequent match for the world championship, Zukertort led with a score of 4: 1, and, according to many experts, only health problems prevented him from becoming the first official world champion in history. The book, in fact, is divided into two parts. The first one consists of the best articles and fragments, the authors of which are mainly people who knew Zukertort well, and gives a full idea of his personality. The second and main part of the book presents the most complete collection of parties to date (more than 300), commented mainly by himself, as well as by his famous rivals – Steinitz, Chigorin, etc. The enduring value of Zuckertort's work is evidenced by the fact that many of his games were later commented on by the fifth world champion Max Euwe. I. Zukertort, a student of the uncrowned world champion A. Andersen, was an adherent of romantic, combination chess. His games will undoubtedly help you improve your skills and enjoy the authentic masterpieces of chess art.

The idea of organizing the 3rd All-Russian Chess Tournament appeared in the Kiev Chess Society in the summer of 1901, shortly after the 2nd All-Russia tournament, which took place in Moscow (in the Moscow Chess Club) from December 26, 1900 to January 14, 1901. But only that the founded Kiev Chess Society did not immediately reach the opportunity to begin the actual organization of the tournament, and the thought of it, barely appearing, subsided. However, after a year & mdash; in the summer of 1902 & mdash; the idea of the tournament was revived again in the Kiev Society and this time with more solid chances for its implementation. Adopted sympathetically everywhere, the idea of the tournament in Kiev found warm support in the Chess Review. This work with joint forces went so successfully that by the end of 1902 it became clear that there was a full opportunity to organize a tournament.

    Ежемесячный журналъ, посвященный шахматной игре и ея литературе. Издаваемый М. Чигоринымъ 1876-1877. С.-Петербургъ. Типография В.О. Демакова.
    Великий русский шахматист, основоположник отечественной шахматной школы Михаил Иванович Чигорин в течение десяти лет издавал великолепные журналы "Шахматный листок" (1876-1881) и "Шахматный вестник" (1885-1887). Он был там основным, а порой - и единственным автором. Излишне говорить, что эти ярчайшие образцы русской шахматной мысли давным-давно стали практически недоступны современному читателю. Благодаря этому труду появляется возможность познакомиться с нашим бесценным шахматным, историческим и литературным наследием.
    "Приятно отметить, что роскошное, элитное исполнение данного четырехтомного издания не имеет аналогов в мировой шахматной литературе", - пишет в "Слове к читателю" многократный чемпион мира Анатолий Карпов.
    Первый том включает в себя два года: 1876-1877.

    СЛОВО К ЧИТАТЕЛЮ

    «Чигорин – основоположник отечественной шахматной школы, выдающийся теоретик, претендент на мировую корону». Как часто нам приходилось читать и слышать эти слова, которые от частого употребления затерлись, стали казаться пустой банальностью. Между тем, Михаил Иванович Чигорин (1850 – 1908) был действительно ярчайшей творческой личностью. Азартный, увлекающий человек, он ради поиска шахматной истины, разгадки тайн замысловатой дебютной либо внешне простой эндшпильной позиции не жалел сил и времени. В те далекие годы универсальность еще не стала «жизненной необходимостью» в шахматах, а потому каждый крупный мастер обладал четко выраженным индивидуальным стилем, со своими достоинствами и недостатками. Русский чемпион верил в динамический потенциал фигур, стремился к открытой фигурной игре, охотно жертвовал материал за инициативу. Его могучий оппонент Вильгельм Стейниц превыше всего ставил незыблемые позиционные ценности: надежность пешечной структуры, преобладание в центре, перевес в пространстве. Чигорин и Стейниц сыграли два матча на первенство мира, множество турнирных и легких партий, но их принципиальный спор велся не только за шахматной доской. Полемически острые, бескомпромиссные дискуссии этих титанов и их последователей украшали страницы газет и журналов тех лет.

    Чигорин страстно любил шахматы, и его угнетало отсутствие общественного интереса к этой мудрой игре в нашей стране. Он стремился доказать, что шахматы – не пустая забава; они могут стать делом всей жизни, настоящей профессией. Чтобы показать шахматы в самом выгодном свете и привлечь внимание просвещенной публики, Чигорин в течение десяти лет издавал, в основном за свой счет, журналы «Шахматный листок» (1876-81) и «Шахматный вестник» (1885-87). Он был там основным, а порой – и единственным автором. Излишне говорить, что эти ярчайшие образцы русской шахматной мысли давным-давно уже стали библиографической редкостью.

    Современный читатель избалован обилием шахматной литературы. Однако без исторической ауры, обволакивающей творческую сущность шахматиста, наш внутренний мир был бы гораздо беднее. Издательство «Русский шахматный дом» совершает настоящий подвиг, давая возможность каждому познакомиться с нашим бесценным шахматным, историческим и литературным наследием. Приятно отметить, что роскошное, элитное исполнение данного четырехтомного издания не имеет аналогов в мировой шахматной литературе.
