书籍简介

国际象棋残局具有国际象棋残局或国际象棋问题所缺乏的即时性：残局不是理论上的或创作出来的，而是实际的棋盘位置，是每场比赛中多余的东西消失，只留下重要的东西的时刻。

何塞·拉乌尔·卡帕布兰卡（José Raúl Capablanca，1888-1942）不需要孤立的艺术理论或作品——他在下棋时创作和创造了国际象棋艺术。他所有的天才——直觉、战术、战略、逻辑——他的所有艺术都在他的残局中闪闪发光，正如他自己自豪地宣称的那样，他建议其他人仔细研究它们。“为了提高你的比赛水平，”他说，“你需要先研究残局；因为虽然残局可以自己研究和掌握，但中局和开局要与残局联系起来研究。”

遵循卡帕布兰卡建议的方式是通过这本书——这是一本专门介绍他伟大结局的书，60 场完整的比赛强调了大结局，但全程都有注释。

欧文·切尔内夫在他的笔记中传达了神秘和奇迹，以及一次又一次发现国际象棋伟大的天生选手的原创、丰富的思想的喜悦。“大师级”、“精致”、“深刻”、“灵感”、“优雅”描述了与阿廖欣、施泰纳、马歇尔、尼姆佐维奇、拉斯克、雷蒂和其他当代国际象棋世界优秀的选手的比赛和锦标赛以及结局。卡帕布兰卡在 1901 年古巴锦标赛（他 12 岁时获胜）中的第 11 场比赛“超越了莫菲、雷舍夫斯基和菲舍尔等其他神童的任何成就。”从 12 岁到书中的后期一场比赛（近四十年后，1936 年在诺丁汉对阵雷舍夫斯基），卡帕布兰卡在紧张的锦标赛氛围中设计了残局，这些残局就像闲暇时梦寐以求的精致、准确的乐器。

这就是卡帕布兰卡的精髓，分析这些残局是为了指导棋手，让国际象棋鉴赏家感到愉悦。书中包括开局、结局主题和对手的索引，以及锦标赛和比赛的参考书目和记录。卡帕布兰卡：对于棋手来说，是残局的缩影；对于读者来说，是经典的国际象棋研究。

Chess endings have an immediacy lacking in chess endgame or chess problems: endings are not theoretical or composed, but actual board positions, the point in every game when the superfluous falls away, leaving only the essential. 

José Raúl Capablanca (1888–1942) had no need for isolated artistic theory or compositions — he composed and created chess art as he played. All of his genius — intuitive, tactical, strategic, logical — all of his art shines clearest in his endings, as he himself was proud to declare, advising others to study them carefully. "In order to improve your game," he said, "you must study the endgame before anything else; for whereas the endings can be studied and mastered by themselves, the middle game and the opening must be studied in relation to the endgame."

The best way to follow Capablanca's advice is through this — the only book devoted to his great endings, 60 complete games emphasizing the grand finale but annotated throughout.

Irving Chernev communicates in his notes the mystery and wonder as well as the delight in discovering again and again the original, fertile mind of chess's greatest born player. "Virtuoso," "exquisite," "profound," "inspired," "elegant," and "fiendish ingenuity" describe match and tournament games and endings against Alekhine, Steiner, Marshall, Nimzowitsch, Lasker, Réti, and others, the best in the contemporary chess world. Capablanca's eleventh game in the 1901 Cuban championship (which he won, aged 12) "surpasses any accomplishment by such other prodigies as Morphy, Reshevsky, and Fischer." From age 12 through the last game in the book (nearly four decades later against Reshevsky at Nottingham, 1936), Capablanca fashions endgames in tense tournament atmosphere that seem like delicate, precise instruments dreamt at leisure.

Here then is the essence of Capablanca, analyzed for the instruction of players and the pleasure of chess connoisseurs. Included are indexes of openings, themes in the endings, and opponents, as well as a bibliography and record of tournament and match play. Capablanca: for players, the epitome of the endgame; for readers, a classic chess study.
