In 1911 he left France and no one knew his whereabouts since then. In this biography we show that Weiss' golpe (shot) actually was Woldouby's golpe, since he won against Isidore Weiss with it. On the other hand we want to show that Woldouby returned to Senegal in 1911 to take the place of a checkers runner-up in 1913.His biography deserves a worthy place in the history ofcheckers, as he was the prominent predecessor of thefamous Senegalese checkers player Baba Sy.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50981148229905,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51602703155473,"sku":"NGR9781326472917","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1326472917.jpg?v=1751239740"},{"product_id":"origin-of-the-checkers-and-modern-chess-game-volume-i-book-govert-westerveld-9781326602123","title":"The Origin of the Checkers and Modern Chess Game.

In this sense we have to take into account that with regards to the alquerque games we have three man morris, six man morris, nine man morris, and twelve man morris.Each game was played in a certain period. Most historians and archaeologists were following Murray, and stated that alquerque-12 was native to Egypt in the 14th and 13th century B.C., because boards had been found carved into the blocks of stone that form the Luxor temple's roof in Kurna, Egypt. However, alquerque-12 has nothing to do with this period.Alquerque-12 in various countries always had to do with Christians and the church. It was probably played by the church authorities, European crusaders, Knight Templars, Knights of the Order of Santiago, and other soldiers. For that reason we hypothesise that the game was an invention of or related to the activities of the Catholic Church not earlier than the sixth century.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51000412864785,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51000415650065,"sku":"NIN9780244072742","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0244072744.jpg?v=1751070441"},{"product_id":"damas-espaolas-book-govert-westerveld-9780244866051","title":"Damas Espaolas","description":"La obra de Juan de Timoneda (publicada en Valencia en el año 1547) fue el primer libro sobre el juego de damas en España. En las composiciones de dicha obra observamos que el juego se abría con dos damas (en la apertura) y que, en la partida, era obligatorio comer. El jugador que no quería comer perdía automáticamente la partida. Esto no quiere decir que no se podía jugar con otras reglas (con la modalidad de soplar, por ejemplo), pero tal suceso tenía que estar acordado de antemano por los jugadores. La obligación de comer cambió totalmente el juego porque, a partir de ese momento, los golpes entraban en el juego, lo que daba gran espectacularidad. Probablemente, el hecho de jugar con dos damas en la apertura halla su origen en el juego de alquerque; intentaremos explicar esto usando los textos que vienen a continuación y teniendo en cuenta que, según nuestra hipótesis, Francesch Vicent era hijo de Juan Ramírez de Lucena (por lo que usó el apodo de Lucena).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51000566415633,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51000569299217,"sku":"NIN9780244866051","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0244866058.jpg?v=1750973794"},{"product_id":"damas-espanolas-reglas-y-estrategia-tomo-i-book-govert-westerveld-9780244865269","title":"Damas Espanolas: Reglas y estrategia.

Puede pensarse en un principio que el juego tiene su origen alrededor del siglo XV en el reino de Aragón (zona de Valencia). Se conocía en aquel momento con el nombre de \"juego del marro\", \"marro de punta\", o \"el ingenio\" Es a partir de 1650 cuando pasó a denominarse definitivamente \"juego de las damas\" o simplemente \"juego de damas\". Parece evidente que el juego llegó a los Países Bajos procedente de España, a causa de las campañas militares que se desarrollaron en Flandes ente 1568 y 1648, por ello resultaba aún más curioso el hecho de que hubiera alcanzado tal desarrollo en estos países, hubiese prácticamente desaparecido en España.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51000572641553,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51000575328529,"sku":"NIN9780244865269","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0244865264.jpg?v=1751291537"},{"product_id":"sergas-de-esplandian-y-juan-del-encina-book-govert-westerveld-9781291641301","title":"Sergas de Esplandian y Juan del Encina","description":"Ya han pasado cuatro años desde la publicación de mi otro libro, en el cual anunciaba que la obra Sergas de Esplandián podría haber sido escrita por Juan del Encina.

There are many poets who have poems and couplets in this art competition, and we find three poets among them, writers of scachs d'amor: Francesc Castellví, Bernard Fenollar and Narcis de Vinyoles. The Obres e Trobes is considered to be the first literary work printed in Spain of which the only known copy in the world is preserved in the University Library of Valencia. It consists of 60 leaves without foliation and signature and is written in Roman letters on paper with hand and star watermark. The three poets, as we see, already knew each other. Seeing the relationship they had with King Ferdinand and knowing his passion for the game of chess, there may be another thing they thought about around 1475. It was time to change the figure of the queen and bishop on the chessboard and inform the King by means of their poem in the form of a manuscript.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51023018033425,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51023019868433,"sku":"NIN9781326374914","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1326374915.jpg?v=1751239730"},{"product_id":"ibn-sab-in-of-the-ricote-valley-the-first-and-last-islamic-place-in-spain-book-govert-westerveld-9781326150440","title":"Ibn Sab'in of the Ricote Valley; the First and Last Islamic Place in Spain","description":"This book is the outcome of a close study of the Ricote Valley and its famous Sufi Ibn Sab'in.

Their move had quite a deep effect. Among these scientists was the great Sufi philosopher, Muhammad Ibn-'Abdul-Haq known as Ibn- Sab'in (d. 669 H. = 1270 AD), who came from the Ricote Valley. He is the originator of the deep philosophical approach in dealing with highly humanistic Sufi thought, and the author of the magnificent treatise Al-Kalam 'ala Al-Masa'il Al-Siqqilliyya, in which he answered the philosophical questions that Frederick II, the Emperor of Sicily, sent to Muslim scientists in the Mashreq and the Maghreb.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51023136588049,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51023138816273,"sku":"NIN9781326150440","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1326150448.jpg?v=1750921189"},{"product_id":"history-of-alquerque-12-remaining-countries-volume-ii-book-govert-westerveld-9781326179359","title":"The History of Alquerque-12.

Such terms clearly classify the first game as noble and worthwhile and the second as silly or worse. Many people like to speak about the superiority of chess over the draughts. However, \"simple\" game does not mean \"easy\" game. In fact, such people only show their ignorance about these two games. Chess is not harder than draughts. The opposite is true - draughts on a 100-square board is more difficult than chess. Draughts is not easier to play well than chess. The game may seem more monotonous or less interesting than chess, but playing it really well is challenging. Any really good draughts player can play blindfolded just as really good chess players do. In this book you will observe the ideas and comments of a lot of chess and draughts players on the question of which game is more difficult - chess or draughts. You will observe that most of them came to the conclusion that draughts is more difficult than chess. It is interesting to observe that Pierre Gestem who was world champion of draughts and bridge and also a very good chess player observed that for him draughts was the most difficult game in the world. Other world champions of draughts and other chess players were of the opinion that draughts on the 100-square board is much harder than chess.Therefore, draughts can no longer be thought of as a simple game due to people's ignorance. On the other hand, the question always arises whether we can compare these two games as they are so different.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51048087093521,"sku":"NIN9781716436123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51157392032017,"sku":"NGR9781716436123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1716436125.jpg?v=1779962434"},{"product_id":"crativit-innovante-dans-le-jeu-de-dames-du-champion-du-monde-1895-1912-isidore-w-book-govert-westerveld-9781794700529","title":"Crativit innovante dans le Jeu de Dames du champion du monde (1895-1912) Isidore Weiss","description":"L'éclat du nom de cet ancien joueur est si fort qu'on ne peut plus imaginer le monde sans ce Napoléon de dames, et on le rencontre encore dans le « coup de Weiss ».

Es probable que nuestro poeta tuviera hecho un borrador de este libro, porque publicó la mayoría de estos poemas en los periódicos, destacando El Diario de Murcia. Por otra parte, publicó en su libro de 1908 algunos versos: La Pira, Virtud, La Dicha, El Lago, Claro-Obscuro, Estrellas errantes, Amor al prójimo, Expiación, Compasión, Soñar despierto, y Tierra y Cielo.

Volgens Pavle Bidev en David H Li was dat dan China en anderen hebben het over Indië en weer anderen over één van de Arabische landen. Het huidige schaakspel heeft echter een enorme ontwikkeling achter de rug wat betreft zijn stukken en gangen en ons huidige schaakspel heeft dan ook vandaag de dag heel weinig te maken met het eerste schaakspel. Ikzelf zie de ontwikkeling van het schaakspel als die van de sinaasappel, waarvan de herkomst China is. Daarna was de verspreiding van de sinaasappel India, de Arabische landen en tenslotte Spanje. Uit dat schaakspel en alquerque spel is toen het huidige damspel ontstaan in Spanje . De meeste geschiedschrijvers over dammen zijn het nog niet met elkaar eens waar in feite het damspel ontstond. Men hoeft maar op internet te kijken en dan blijkt dat men damde in de tijd van Egypte, zo'n 5000 jaar geleden, anderen hebben het over de Romeinen en weer anderen over de Middeleeuwen. Daar komt dan nog bij dat er vele varianten van het damspel bestaan, wat de zaak er niet gemakkelijker op maakt. Geschiedenis is een wetenschap die om documenten vraagt. In dat opzicht valt het meteen op dat het damspel in Spanje vroeger en nog steeds op een schaakbord gespeeld wordt. Het eerste document waarop we de beginstand van het dammen zien, vinden we terug in een Italiaans schaakmanuscript uit Perugia dat geschreven werd door de uit Spanje weggevluchte Joodse schaakmeester Francesch Vincent. Het spel heette \"Ludus dominarum D.\"Waarschijnlijk werd het Spaanse damspel op het schaakbord erg veel beoefend in de Lage Landen gedurende de jaren 1568 - 1648 en kwam men er al snel achter dat het spel bij goed spel snel op remise uitdraaide en daarom ging men ook achteruitslaan toelaten. Daarna ging men het schaakbord vervangen door een groter bord van 10 x 10 velden en ook in dit spel mocht men nu terugslaan. Dit nieuwe spel kan men vermoedelijk als een uitvinding beschouwen van de dorpen rond de Zuiderzee. Dus die dorpen die havens hadden en kontakt met Spanje onderhielden via de scheepvaart. Er zijn op dit moment nog geen definitieve bewijzen, maar het zou me niets verwonderen als deze eer de Friesen in Franeker toekomt.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51250973376785,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51250974687505,"sku":"NIN9781716024450","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1716024455.jpg?v=1779962938"},{"product_id":"complot-para-el-golpe-de-franco-book-govert-westerveld-9781326168124","title":"El Complot Para El Golpe De Franco","description":"Uno de los más destacados autores españoles en relación a la Guerra Civil es Ángel Viñas.

In them he was able to give free rein to his \"va banque\" tendencies of the fantasy, at breakneck speed and with unfailing certainty. This was also the case in the simultaneous sessions which still reminded him of the old glory that his reputation had always remembered. He played unprecedentedly fast so that his lightning-fast playing style could not be followed, and his knowledge of the beautiful and surprising game of hitting amazed everyone. He mastered the three main parts of the game; problems, the shot game, and the whole game in its most capricious forms. If one plays and looks at his problems, he finds the ultimate economy in his work in the first place: his problems say a lot with very little material. In the second place we find purity and originality. Weiss was a real problem artist and his creations therefore touch the fine, the subtle, and the artistic manner that can strike us in this way. A problem with seven times capturing the most pieces is very rare, but Weiss was one of the first to come up with it. The search for problems composed by the grand masters is a futile quest.

Even today when his games are outdated and the game plan in many of them has been completely refuted by new theories, when they are reenacted, one is always struck by the charm of a natural talent, the broad strategic setup, the keen eye on the only weakness in the counterplay, and not least because of the fine feeling of playing, which allowed this French master to orient himself in unfamiliar situations. He liked the surprising move, also in his games, and he often made moves that many others would strongly disapprove of. These surprising moves can be found in all his constructions, especially in his end games. The risky combination game gave Weiss the opportunity for brilliant feats of ingenuity. Where is the player who nowadays still dares to play Weiss openings, since the monster of the theory took possession of the game? If one compares Weiss games from more than 100 years ago to the current position game, one sees what was won, but also what was lost. Romanticism predominates in the former, the latter is a product of study, often dry and understandable only to the initiate.

The darkness and oblivion opposed my purpose, of a nation that almost for eight centuries dominated in Spain and where the political history of the Spanish Arabs (Muslims) in Murcia remained in the deepest darkness until recently. I do not deny the glory of Dozy and the immense service he has done with its publications to Spain, but we cannot ignore that today we have Arabists in Muria and Spain who follow the footsteps of the wise Dutch and have improved on him a lot. Murcia belonged to Al-Andalus and throughout the period of Islamic rule, Al-Andalus was a remarkable example and outstanding model of tolerance. All Jews and Christians were allowed to maintain their beliefs and live their lives as they desired as long as they respected their Muslim rulers. The Muslims played a principal role in the history of Spain. Their presence illuminated the Iberian Peninsula while the rest of Europe was engulfed in darkness.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52748008128785,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52748008227089,"sku":"NIN9781326792787","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781326792787.jpg?v=1763534976"},{"product_id":"analysing-literary-works-in-fernando-de-rojas-will-volume-i-book-govert-westerveld-9781716658945","title":"Analysing Literary Works in Fernando de Rojas' Will.

We therefore know the idiolect of de Rojas and thus will be able to trace his possible books that could have been written under a pseudonym or anonymously. The first volume carries the first 19 of the 49 books de Rojas owned according to his testament. So far, I only detected the idiolect of de Rojas in 5 of these 19 books. The JGAAP is a very helpful program, but using it is not enough to be sure that the results are 100% reliable. For that reason, we need additional proofs, such as studies by other researchers and certain words frequently used by the scholars with the help of CORDE. Taking the mysterious writing activities of Fernando de Rojas and Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo into account, the goal of this book is to provide a toolbox from which researchers can draw conclusions about the possible works of these two authors.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52753683513617,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52753683808529,"sku":"NIN9781716658945","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781716658945.jpg?v=1763566608"},{"product_id":"cambiando-blanca-por-ricote-alrededor-del-ao-1900-book-govert-westerveld-9781716554704","title":"Cambiando Blanca por Ricote alrededor del ao 1900","description":"Rafael López de Haro fue notario de Blanca desde el año 1902 hasta 1905. De hecho, en 1902 fue el notario más joven de España. Después vivió en otras ciudades como Valdepeñas (Pontevedra), Zaragoza, Barcelona y finalmente Madrid, pero nunca pudo olvidar los años que estuvo en Blanca, un lugar paradisíaco. Escribió muchísimas obras durante toda su vida, y gracias a ellas nos enteramos sobre cómo era la vida diaria de Blanca. Por ejemplo, nos hace saber que en aquellos años aún se cultivaban las peras: «Yo no sabía de Blanca, sino que allí se crían naranjos y frutales: \"agrio y frutales\" se dice en los títulos de propiedad. En una frutería de la calle de peligros veía con frecuencia un marbete anunciando \"peras de Blanca\" sobre el montón fragante de una especie de pomas de forma alargada, amarillas con rubores de carmín». La construcción de la línea ferroviaria supuso una gran ayuda al transporte. Además, gracias a esto también observamos que el pescado de la costa cantábrica podía llegar en fresco, espolvoreado con sal o rociado con limón. Esto implica que ya en estos territorios se usaba el limón, y Blanca solía vender sus limones con ayuda de los arrieros. Sin embargo, ahora con esta red ferroviaria, desde 1864 la venta de limón podía cubrir gran parte del país. Esta vez la novela de López de Haro no trata sobre Blanca, sino sobre Ricote. O sea, mientras el notario prestaba su servicio a la gente de Ricote, también tuvo tiempo de conocer a fondo el pueblo y sus costumbres. Pero no te diremos nada más. Ahora es el lector quien, con la novela \"El salto de la novia\", puede dar a su imaginación la oportunidad de conocer la vida en el Valle de Ricote alrededor del año 1900.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52753801117969,"sku":"NIN9781716554704","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781716554704.jpg?v=1763567097"},{"product_id":"innovative-kreativitt-des-weltmeister-1895-1912-isidore-weiss-in-dame-book-govert-westerveld-9781794710689","title":"Innovative Kreativitt des Weltmeister (1895-1912) Isidore Weiss in Dame.","description":"Weiss war der König des \"va banque\" und der König des Kombinationsspiels. Dies spiegelte sich in den sogenannten Schnellpartien wider, in denen er unschlagbar war. In ihnen konnte er seinen \"va banque\"-Tendenzen der Phantasie freien Lauf lassen, in halsbrecherischem Tempo und mit unfehlbarer Sicherheit. Dies war auch in den Simultansitzungen der Fall, die ihn immer noch an den alten Ruhm erinnerten, den sein Ruf immer hatte. Er spielte beispiellos schnell, so dass man seinem blitzschnellen Spielstil nicht folgen konnte, und seine Kenntnisse des schönen und überraschenden Schlagspiels verblüfften alle. Er beherrschte die drei Hauptteile des Spiels; Probleme, das Kombination-Spiel und das ganze Spiel in seinen kapriziösesten Formen. Wenn man spielt und seine Probleme betrachtet, findet man an erster Stelle die ultimative Ökonomie in seiner Arbeit: seine Probleme sagen viel mit sehr wenig Material. An zweiter Stelle findet man Reinheit und Originalität. Weiss war ein echter Problemkünstler und seine Kreationen berühren daher das Feine, das Subtile und das Künstlerische, das uns auf diese Art und Weise berühren kann. Ein Problem mit siebenmaligem Erfassen der meisten Teile ist sehr selten, aber Weiss war einer der ersten, der es erfunden hat. Die Suche nach Problemen, die von den Großmeistern komponiert wurden, ist eine vergebliche Suche. Wie bei so vielen prominenten Spielern ist das Problem für sie ein fast geschlossenes Gebiet. Weiss war in dieser Hinsicht eine sehr große Ausnahme. Und dann hatten wir auch noch einen Weiss als Endspielkomponisten. Seine Genialität spiegelt sich in diesem Genre durch das ideale Zusammenspiel von Dame und Bauer wider.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52755034013969,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52755034177809,"sku":"NIN9781794710689","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781794710689.jpg?v=1763571609"},{"product_id":"tactiek-strategie-van-het-damspel-door-isidore-weiss-book-govert-westerveld-9781794787476","title":"Tactiek \u0026 Strategie van het Damspel door Isidore Weiss","description":"De wereldkampioen Isidore Weiss, de \"Napoleon van het dambord\", had een uitzonderlijke positie onder de grootmeesters. Zelfs nu zijn partijen achterhaald zijn en het speelplan in veel ervan volledig is weerlegd door nieuwe theorieën, wordt men, wanneer ze nagespeeld worden, altijd getroffen door de charme van een natuurtalent, de brede strategische opzet, het scherpe oog op de enige zwakte in het tegenspel, en niet in de laatste plaats door het fijne spelgevoel, waardoor deze Franse meester zich in onbekende situaties kon oriënteren. Ik heb genoten van de verrassende zet, ook in zijn partijen, en hij maakte vaak zetten die vele anderen sterk zouden afkeuren. Deze verrassende zetten zijn terug te vinden in al zijn constructies, vooral in zijn eindspellen. Het riskante combinatiespel gaf Weiss de kans op briljante vindingrijkheid. Waar is de speler die tegenwoordig nog Weiss-openingen durft te spelen, sinds het monster van de theorie het spel in bezit nam? Als je Weiss zijn partijen van meer dan 100 jaar geleden vergelijkt met het huidige positiespel, dan zie je wat er is gewonnen, maar ook wat er is verloren.

Here you enter the world of 1001 nights and feel as if you have ended up in Morocco. That is not surprising, because the Muslims have lived in this area for centuries and you can see that everywhere.
