  • Galería De Maestros (37) Wolfgang Uhlmann En El Ajedrez La Defensa
    Galería de Maestros (37) Wolfgang Uhlmann En el ajedrez la Defensa Francesa está ligada indisolublemente al alemán Wolfgang Uhlmann, (Dresde, 29 de marzo de 1935), que hoy cumple 76 años. “Cuando se juega bien La Defensa Francesa es una verdadera delicia, es siempre interesante y lleva a luchas extremadamente complejas” dice Uhlmann en el prólogo a su libro “Winning with the French”, donde analiza 60 de sus mejores partidas con su defensa predilecta, fruto de sus 40 años defendiéndola. El libro se publicó por primera vez en 1991 en alemán y luego en otros idiomas, desde 2006 existe la versión en castellano (Editorial Hispano Europea) Con ella ha derrotado entre otros a Robert Fischer, Leonid Stein, David Bronstein, Efim Geller, Robert Byrne, Isaac Boleslavsky, e infinidad de maestros. También fue un experto en la Defensa Gruenfeld y la Defensa India del Rey, pero su legado no fue tan importante como en la Defensa Francesa. Claro que no es el único maestro que aportó ideas importantes a esta defensa, de inmediato vienen a la memoria los nombres de Viktor Korchnoi, Mikhail Botvinnik, Aarón Nimzovich, y muchos otros, pero Uhlmann la jugó en exclusividad, su maestría era tal que el ex campeón del mundo Anatoly Karpov, en la plenitud de su carrera, lo tuvo como su consejero en la Defensa Francesa. Era el número 1 de la extinta RDA, o Alemania Oriental, de la que fue campeón nacional en 11 ocasiones, desde 1954 a 1986, y a la que representó en 11 olimpiadas, casi todas como primer tablero, desde Moscú 1956 hasta Novi Sad 1990, esa fue la última vez en que Alemania se presentó separada a una cita internacional.

Igolomska 12 To my father Vladimir Z hdanov for teaching me how to play chess and to my mother Tamara Z hdanova for encouraging my passion for the game. PREFACE A critical-minded author always questions his own writing and tries to predict whether it will be illuminating and useful for the readers. What makes this book special? First of all, I have always had an inquisitive mind and an insatiable desire for accumulating, generating and sharing knowledge. Th is work is a prod- uct of having carefully read a few hundred remarkable chess books and a few thousand worthy non-chess volumes. However, it is by no means a mere compilation of ideas, facts and recommendations. Most of the eye- opening tips in this manuscript come from my refl ections on discussions with some of the world’s best chess players and coaches. Th is is why the book is titled Yearbook of Chess Wisdom: it is composed of 366 self-suffi - cient columns, each of which is dedicated to a certain topic.
