  • 1992, Russia, the City of Orel. I Am a 23-Year-Old Student and I Am Fond of Playing Chess
    1992, Russia, the city of Orel. I am a 23-year-old student and I am fond of playing chess. My dream is to win the "Turgenev Prize", a round-robin tournament named after the famous writer. However, the 11 opponents I have to face don't care much about my dream. In the 9th round, Semyon Mikhailovich sits at the table across from me. He is at least 50 years wiser than me. Having the advantage of playing white, he is a strong, but a good- natured and smiling opponent, despite the fact that some accident left him with only one eye. The old man starts confidently, moving the d- and c-pawns forward. I very soon manage to attack one of them, but it’s nothing dangerous yet. The most reasonable thing White can do now is to advance the e-pawn to e3. My plans to outnumber the opponent’s army would shatter at that move, but to tell the truth I have not expected an easy victory. But wait, what is happening? Semyon Mikhailovich's hand is reaching out to the f2 pawn just next to the right one and throwing it forward. They are so similar, these white pawns standing in a row. A moment later, the old man looks over the new position with his single eye and bursts out swearing. "You wanted to play e3, but grabbed the wrong pawn, right?" I ask. "Yes, of course...," the old man's shakes his head sadly. "You can take it back," the words slip out of my mouth before I have time to think about what I am saying.

The first official rules for chess had been published in 1929 in French language. An update of the rules was published (once more in French language) in 1952 with the amendments of FIDE General Assembly. After another edition in 1966 with comments to the rules, finally in 1974 the Permanent Rules Commission published the first English edition with new interpretations and some amendments. In the following years the Permanent Rules Commission made some more changes, based on experience from competitions. The last major change was made in 2001 when the ‘more or less’ actual Laws of Chess had been written and split in three parts: the Basic Rules of Play, the Competition Rules and Appendices.
