    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... 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. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others.

    Одна из крупных заслуг Филидора состоит в том, что, в отличие от своих предшественников, он подверг дебюты систематическому научному исследованию. При этом, не ограничиваясь анализом отдельных дебютных возможностей, он стремился ныяснить общую ценность того или иного дебюта. Так, например, Филидор полагал, что после 1.е4 е5 ход 2. Bс4 заслуживает предпочтения перед 2. Nf3. К этому выводу он пришел на основании своих наблюдений относительно слабости пункта f7, который, по его мнению, следует стараться как можно скорее атаковать, а также на том основании, что 2. Nf3 препятствует продвижению f2-f4. Правда, продвижение это на 2-м ходу он сам считал слабым, но в позднейшей стадии оно представлялось ему вполне уместным. Исходя из тех же соображений, в ответ на 1.е4 е5 2. Nf3 он рекомендовал за черных 2...d6 (так называемая «защита Филидора» ) как наилучшую подготовку к f7-f5. В настоящее время 2. Nf3 считается более сильным, чем 2. Bс4, что же касается защиты (после 2. Nf3) 2...d6, то она признается возможной, хотя и дающей черным трудную игру, - нo, во всяком случае, не в ее первоначальной форме, т.е. в связи с 3...f5. To, что современная теория отвергла эти дебютные идеи Филидора, отнюдь не умaляет его заслуг. В области дебютов он проложил новые пути: он первый, исходя из общих принципов, пытался доказать превосходство одного дебюта перед другим. Как мы уже указывали, однако, главный вклад Филидора в шахматное искусство состоит не в этом. Гораздо большее значение имеют разработанные им общие методы и его теория пешечной игры, и в наше время еще сохранившая силу. Вот почему мы должны признать Филидора создателем позиционного метода, т.е. такого способа игры, который основан не на точном расчете огромного числа вариантов, а на общих принципах и правилах. В своем капитальном труде "Analyse des echecs» Филидор на материале примерно 9 тщательно проанилизированных им партий обосновывает свои правила. Далее он рассматривает некоторые эндшпили, причем и здесь его анализы до сих пор сохранили значение. Во второй части своего труда он излагает свой способ достижения мата слоном и конем, признаваемый и современной теорией самым логичным и сильным. Приведем одну партию из учебника Филидора, отлично иллюстрирующую его теорию пешечной игры. Примечания, заключеиные нами в кавычки, принадежат Филидору.
