viii242 with wood cut designs and one diagram. Octavo 8 1/4" x 5 3/4" bound in half beige leather with old labels in gilt to spine over marbled boards. Bibliotheca van der Linde-Niemeijeriana: 527 Second edition.<br /><br />Domenico Lorenzo Ponziani was an 18th-century Italian law professor priest chess player composer and theoretician. He is best known today for his chess writing. Ponziani was friend with fellow Modenese chess players and writers Ercole del Rio and Giambattista Lolli and collectively the trio is known as the Modenese Masters. In 1769 Ponziani published the first edition of <i>Il giuoco incomparabile degli scacchi The Incomparable Game of Chess</i>. As Ponziani did not include his name in this work <i>Opera d'Autore Modenese</i> it was identified to the Anonymous Modenese. The second edition in 1782 was much improved and laid out the principles of the Italian school of chess as exemplified by 17th-century Italian masters such as Gioachino Greco. Although Ponziani identified himself in the second edition the 1820 translation by English naval officer J. B. Smith using the pen name J. S. Bingham <i>The Incomparable Game of Chess</i> attributed the work to del Rio. Ponziani's work is the best practical guide produced by the Modenese Masters. Like writings by del Rio and Lolli Ponziani deals only with the opening and endgame with no discussion of the middlegame. In the opening the primary objective is to obtain the maximum amount of mobility for the pieces aiming in particular for vulnerable points such as the f2 or f7 square. No importance is attached to formation or maintenance of a pawn centerâ€"pawns are used to drive back enemy pieces. Ponziani 1782 also gave an example of an endgame blockade or fortress in which the inferior side is able to hold a draw despite having only two minor pieces for the queen by hemming in the opposing king. In the opening Ponziani is best known as the eponym of the Ponziani Opening 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3 although he did not originate it as it was published by Lucena around 1497. His name is properly attached to the Ponziani Countergambit 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3 f5 in the Ponziani Opening as he published the first analysis in 1782.
