    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.
