  • Löberitzer Schachchronik/1986/1.Auflage
    Löberitzer Schachtage Der Löberitzer Schachclub Das Jahr 1871 ist das Geburtsjahr des Löberitzer Schachclubs, obwohl eigentlich schon einige Jahre vorher mehr oder weniger regelmäßig in Löberitz Schach gespielt wurde. Der Hauslehrer Johann Mel- chior Kirsch1 brachte das königliche Spiel ins Dorf. Über die Person des Lehrers Kirsch ist uns wenig bekannt, da er bald wieder den Ort verließ. Er wirkte später um die Jahrhundert- wende als Pastor in Ammendorf bei Halle, hielt aber immer postalischen Kontakt mit den Löberitzer Schachspielern. Dieser Mann, der als eigentlicher Gründer des Schachclubs gilt, fand natürlich mit seinen Ideen beim unternehmungslustigen Franz Ohme, von dem kein Bild existiert, Unterstützung. Johann Melchior Kirsch Zu diesen beiden gesellten sich noch eine Handvoll Leute, von denen vor allem der Landwirt Friedrich Gustav Krause2 als starker Spieler galt. Der Gasthof „Zur Weintraube“ war der Ort der Zusammenkünfte. Die allgemeine Euphorie zur damaligen Zeit wurde durch die Proklamation des Deutschen Kaiserreiches ausgelöst. Nach Gründung des Schachclubs im Juni 1871 wurden Franz Ohme als Clubleiter und Gustav Krause als Schriftführer in den Vorstand ge- wählt. Friedrich Gustav Krause 1 Johannes Melchior Kaspar Baltharsar Kirsch, so sein vollständiger und sich wegen seines Geburts- tages auf die Hl. Drei Könige beziehende Name, wurde am 6. Januar 1844 in Leuth geboren. Er besuchte das Gymnasium Gütersloh und Cleve und studierte von 1868 bis 1872 an der Universität zu Halle. Zur Finanzierung des Studiums war er in Löberitz bei Zörbig als Privatlehrer tätig. Dabei brachte er das Schachspiel nach Löberitz und begründete gemeinsam mit dem Gashofbesitzer Friedrich Fanz Ohme 1871 den „Löberitzer Schachclub“. Kirsch starb nach einem beruflichen Wer- degang als Lehrer in einer Privatschule in der Schweiz und als Rektor in Neutomischel / Wartheland und Pfarrer am 7.

  • THE RATING of CHESSPLAYERS, PAST and PRESENT Second Edition
    The Book One of the most extraordinary books ever written about chess and chessplayers, this authoritative study goes well beyond a lucid explanation of how today's chessmasters and tournament players are rated. Twenty years' research and practice produce a wealth of thought-provoking and hitherto unpublished material on the nature and development of high-level talent: Just what constitutes an 'exceptional performance' at the chessboard? Can you really profit from chess lessons? What is the lifetime pattern of Grandmaster development? Where are the masters born? Does your child have master potential? The step-by-step rating system exposition should enable any reader to become an expert on it. For some it may suggest fresh approaches to performance measurement and handicapping in bowling, bridge, golf and elsewhere. 43 charts, diagrams and maps supplement the text. How and why are chessmasters statistically remarkable? How much will your rating rise if you work with the devotion of a Steinitz? At what age should study begin? What toll does age take, and when does it begin? Development of the performance data, covering hundreds of years and thousands of players, has revealed a fresh and exciting version of chess history. Two of the many tables identify more than 500 all-time chess greats, with personal data and top lifetime performance ratings. Just what does government assistance do for chess? What is the Soviet secret? What can we learn from the Icelanders? Why did the small city of Plovdiv produce three Grandmasters in only ten years? Who are the untitled dead? Did Euwe take the championship from Alekhine on a fluke? How would Fischer fare against Morphy in a ten-wins match? 'It was inevitable that this fascinating story be written,' asserts FIDE President Max Euwe, who introduces the book and recognises the major part played by ratings in today's burgeoning international activity.
