The cherub and snail duo on our copy of George Allen’s The Life of Philidor (New York, 1865) is bringing some joy to our #PublishersBindingThursday. We love the appropriately tiny scale of this whimsical gold-stamped decoration.

Allen, George. The life of Philidor, musician and chess-player. New York : F. Leypoldt. 1865.

«Северный Филидор»

http://civilization-history.ru

Так и оставаться России страной шахматистов-любителей, если бы не Александр Петров, прозванный за склонность к позиционной игре "северным Филидором". Он заложил первые кирпичи в строительство шахматной сверхдержавы. В начале XIX века на шахматной арене доминировали итальянская и французская школы шахмат. Мастера того времени были сторонниками либо одной, либо второй. Александр Петров нашёл компромиссный вариант, тем самым заложив основы русской школы. Он даже разработал дебют, широко известный сейчас под именем русского. Северный Филидор приложил руку и к изгнанию французов из Москвы, правда, опять же, на шахматном поле: им была разработана задача "Бегство Наполеона из Москвы в Париж". В начале XIX века Петров и шахматы в России были синонимами. В домах любого уважающего себя шахматиста была книга мастера. Две книги, к примеру, были в библиотеке Пушкина.
