Foreword
For chess players there can be few activities more rewarding than time
spent with the games of Adolph Anderssen. Many of these games leave
one taken aback, surprised at Andersseris audacity and nerve. Many
feature grand sacrificial cascades and large scale blood-letting. Many
display craftsmanship of the highest order, advanced technique and su-
preme endgame skill. In almost every game, however, one is left with the
certainty of having experienced something transcendent, something
greater than the game itself. Define that "something" and you will define
the boundary between our mortality and the everlasting, and that is why
Andersseris games will live forever — because he so often crossed that
boundary in search of Truth and Beauty.
It is a pleasure to present this collection of Andersseris games. Of course,
much assistance was required of and ably rendered by our regular crew of
file-builders, computer hacks and dilettantes (thanks Gary, Lewis and
Dave!), and we gratefully acknowledge Traute Malhotra for her fine
translation of the memorial essay which follows. This obituary was pub-
lished by the Deutsche Schachzeitung (No. 5, May 1879), and is a wonderful
tribute to Anderssen which has never before appeared in English. A special
word of thanks is due Grandmaster Anatoly Lein, who supervised the game
commentary in Part III. Everyone involved has combined to make this
volume a worthy transport for Andersseris passage into the next century.
Andersseris passage into this century from his own nineteenth was
accomplished by Dr. Hermann von Gottschall, in his monumental account of
Andersseris career. The game analyses in von Gottschall's book were
compiled from every source imaginable, and those notes form the
foundation of the commentary in this book. Further, the present volume contains
about 100 more games than appeared in von Gottschall's work, and the
notes have been consummately edited and updated by FIDE Master Ron
Burnett. Unfortunately, von Gottschall did not regularly cite the sources
for his material, some of which we know only by accident. In most cases,
however, we simply do not know where this often amazing analysis
9

originated. For a fuller discussion of these matters, and for documentation
on the game commentary we do know about, see the Textual Note on
p.347.
We wish to draw the reader's attention to Game Nos. 340 and 352, two
of Andersseris most famous encounters, and to the in-depth analysis
accompanying them. The Immortal Game and the Evergreen Game are
very fine indeed, and merit their extended coverage, but many dozens of
such dramatic contests could be pointed out. The student will soon
discover that Anderssen spared no effort to create positions full of tension
each time that he played. One can find masterpieces in every corner of
this book, and a chess player of any level can only be enriched by
discovering for himself these hidden gems. We commend the seeker into
Cassia's arms.

Master Anderssen
(Born on July 6, 1818, died March 13, 1879 in Breslau)
Blessed is the man of intellectual privilege whose whole life
revolves around his chosen avocation. Especially honored is
the man who comes to personify that avocation. The less
often such an outstanding figure arises, the more lasting is
his influence on forthcoming generations. Only a chosen few
may aspire to his epoch-making achievements, and his name
is raised by the common people as a symbol of his cause. The
simple sound of his name alone is enough for generations in
the furthest future to recall his deeds. Names like Homer,
Socrates, Kant and Goethe keep their popular magic long
after the glory of other intellectuals has paled, others who
might themselves have delved deeply into the secrets of
Knowledge and Art. And this phenomena repeats itself in
every sphere of human aspiration, so proving its value in the
development of Mankind. In the area of our noble recreation
of the mind, such a man has now left us; his life's work now
passes from our cultural history into the general history of all
men.
With the death of chess Master Anderssen we have lost a
most outstanding personality, whose whole life was identified
with the field of his endeavors. There is a growing
interrelation between the cultural history of all peoples, but his name
will forever be linked to the refinement of chess in the
German chess community. And while the stars of many of
our chess Masters shine brightly on their various
accomplishments, the indelible star of the name Anderssen will forever
shine brighter than theirs in the German chess firmament.
His life in chess went full circle; his personality became the
very soul of chess. More than through any other man, the
German chess school was portrayed in his persona.
Anderssen united a conscientious thoroughness in research
with a persistent will, or energy of desire, combining with his
brilliant depth of analysis. He upheld a rigid fulfillment of
duty, which never spared himself, and he always followed his
12

calling in chess whenever it became necessary to keep the
flag of German chess honor flying.
To comprehend a life full of difficulties and success, like the
one that lies before us, and to fully understand and celebrate
his memory with dignity is a task nearly impossible to
achieve, but the object of these pages is to at least make a
beginning. Even if both the honored and the celebrating (to
quote Marc Aurel) are only mayflies in the vastness of life,
yet will future generations keep the memory of his now
fulfilled record as a blessed legacy, one with lasting effects.
We the survivors feel overwhelmed by our grief for the great
and irreplaceable loss we have suffered, having been eye
witnesses to a completed and honorable life. Thus we feel
the force of this deep sorrow, but not only our magazine,
whose name was closely connected with the deceased for
many years, but also the whole fraternity of international
chess feels immersed in sorrow. And at this moment our
sorrow cannot be reduced by the consolation that among the
granite pillars which form the foundation of chess history, is
one which will always carry the name Anderssen.
The life of a man is reflected in his deeds, the character of a
man in his creations. The great researcher discovers new
truths in accordance with the laws of nature, and the great
artist makes images of enduring beauty, which are pictures
of his innermost life. Likewise the virtuoso affects the imme-
diate sensibilities of his audience by momentary exertions.
The chess Master is lucky, because in his domain scientific
work is closer to artistry, in that he designs equally effective
and lasting forms to please the people. If he dedicates himself
to his subject area, then we get the impression of a
harmonious unity in both his personal nature and his creations. His
chess friends granted Anderssen such a vehicle for his
creativity and brilliant talent. Although he had to overcome
many obstacles to fulfill his life's work in chess, he was so
completely at one with his favorite subject and its
appropriate treatment that, not reckoning otherwise, he always
vouched personally with all his strength and power for the
13

highest ideals in chess. It is, of course, the basis of his
character that he treated the game with complete sincerity
and indestructible will power, which game even for him was
a mental rest period beside his everyday work. If excitement
prevailed (as his obituary praises) like in Bledow's TTiun, and
if the "Silence of the Deed" or "Friendly Peace" in Hanstein's
Wesen and such describe his presence, Anderssen united
both advantages into a higher element. His deep inner
devotion to the game showed by his restless but well planned
work, which resulted in a galvanizing creative energy, whose
focused will pursued its purpose by elegant means, striving
after its goal without deviation. Only with the help of his will
power, which was true to him all his life, was it possible for
Anderssen to reach his expectations in this higher profession
of the chess world, through the fulfillment of three ambitions
which help us understand our chess Master's work.
Anderssen had taken over the administration of the German
chess councils of his time, and especially the job of keeping
the technique of the game alive in view of the fresh and
growing advancements in theory. How far he himself took
part in these advancements was secondary to his true chess
profession, especially because his theoretical works can only
be understood as improvements upon his own experience, or
as the combined results of his practical play. Furthermore, as
the German champion Anderssen had to represent and
uphold the reputation of German chess art in all major
national and international events. He was always responsible
for teaching the younger generation, and the rewarding
business of enlisting the youth into chess by the example of
his love for the game and his untiring readiness to fight.
Around these three tasks that he constantly tried to fulfill
revolved another obligation, which was very special, and
whose fulfillment coincided with his three duties: The
creation of a union for all serious chess players, with the help of
a well organized and far reaching promotion of this
aristocratic game. After this deed was accomplished at the time of
his anniversary, and at the height of his work for the game
of chess, his rich life was allowed to come to an end. At the
14

close of human creation there is no better tribute than the
uplifting contemplation, that sees the completion of a life's
work in its beginning. Not the empty being, but the growing
out of what was put into human nature is alone the comfort
and price of aspiration, and beyond the small-minded com-
plaint about what the deceased might still have achieved is
a true appreciation of the center and value of his life.
The real beginnings of our Masters chess work go back to
his earliest childhood, when his father taught the nine-year-
old boy the basic rules of the game. His first chess appren-
ticeship took place at the time of his school education in the
Elisabeth-Gymnasium in Breslau, where he was born on July
6,1818. HirschePs German Greco, along with Allgaier's and
Philidor's teaching books, opened the secrets of chess to the
eager youth, and planted the seeds of a deep understanding
of pawn and piece play into his responsive mind. Anderssen
absorbed the fundamentals and found practice playing chess
with his school friends, and later with the experienced chess
players of his home town. One of them was the well-versed
Master Liebrecht, a clear and sharp thinker with an imper-
turbable calm and presence of mind. Another was the well-
known editor of the original Chess Riddles, K.F. Schmidt,
whom Anderssen praised for his well thought out and
planned game. But the most effective influence on the
continuous strengthening of his play was the constant
practice during his free time in the course of his academic studies.
A busy and varied chess life bloomed in a local public bar,
the so-called Nova, where his chess contemporaries made
their first acquaintance with the Master. Some of these
became famous in later years, among them the current
president of the chess club in Leipzig. He met equally aspiring
fellow students there and toughened his energetic attacking
game. Through these contests with the most talented chess
players of Breslau, whose games differed in many ways, he
learned to appreciate different openings, attacks, defenses,
and especially the strange subtleties of each piece. Could this
combined effect of impressions fall upon a deep and energetic
personality such as Andersseris without lasting conse-
15

quence? Naturally it stimulated his assimilation of chess art,
and with it his own creative urge. The simultaneous study of
the artistic games of Stamma and the Italian Masters led to
creations of similar but more completed compositions, which
were blessed by a lively energy and expressed the combina-
tion of the single pieces in an aesthetic and artful way.
It is an unmistakable mark of true genius that his work
defined a new epoch. Anderssen published the Exercises for
Chess Players, a collection of problems, when he was a young
man and with it left a mark of high originality. His exemplary
results in this special subject area of chess problems laid the
foundation for his fantastic advancements, and they already
foretell the strange double -sidedness of Anderssen's
practical play, which became more apparent in his later years,
combining far-sighted planning and deeply prepared
openings with decisive piece maneuvers. They are proof of the
Masters preference for certain pieces and their perfect
deployment in well thought through game plans, which only
experts are able to unravel. It is mainly his finely tuned
handling of the Knight, which already demonstrates the
youthful Master's interest in combinations, which was
planned far ahead. At the height of his chess powers it was
the interweaving of pawn and piece play, "where ghosts sleep
under thin blankets," that led him to a novel treatment of,
for example, the Spanish game.
Anderssens ground-breaking problem collection of 1842
helped to spread word about the composer far beyond his
home town, which must have made Breslau an attraction for
other chess Masters who traveled to the city. A charitable
effect of such visits by chess greats like Bledow, v.d. Lasa,
Mayet and Lowenthal was inevitable. Our Master was
encouraged to further study the game, especially with the help
of the well regarded authors Walker and Lewis, who had
introduced the Evans gambit into literature. A personal
meeting with Bledow, who had published the most important
examples of the contest between La Bourdonnais and Mac-
Donnel in German, had deeply impressed Anderssen, who
16

could not yet stand up to the overwhelming game of the
champion from Berlin, and stimulated him to further study
these games. This deeper involvement opened new
perspectives, which fundamentally influenced Andersseris chess
development, and this far-reaching consequence manifested
itself over time in his continuing proficiency. His youthful
temperamental nature and his personal feeling of
independence led him to prefer the open game with its rapid,
more glamorous offense, which not always could be played
with complete correctness and could not hold up against a
planned and calculated game. The Master felt this conflict
between better results (which he perfected in later years) and
the aggressive tendency founded in his personal character,
which he referred to when discussing his own game with
other Masters. He wrote in 1847 (Schachzeitung, p. 278) that
for one's own security, it is important to keep a watchful eye
on the opponent, whose careful hesitation hides the fact that
he wants you to prematurely attack. 'The intention alone to
prepare the deciding move and wait for the right time is not
enough to fight the old habit, where the attacker, not
respecting his losses enough, knows that a mistake in execution
kills." Therefore those games which he lost against the Berlin
champions, though one-sided at times, yet have the imprint
of general correctness and of deep understanding, which
lends unity to the entire game.
At that time Anderssen was a young adult still growing up,
not even 24 years old, when he entered the chess world with
his "Practice" collection. His build, bigger than average,
already gave signs of developing into a large and strong-
boned stature, of robust and stocky strength. His head, with
dark straight hair, showed little of a protruding forehead. The
open profile with the German nose and the darkly shining
but friendly eyes, free of the sometimes penetrating look of
later years, gave him winning looks. The mouth, more big
than small, hid a sensual feature, changing frequently in
humorous situations to a heartily innocent and pleasant
sounding laugh. The lips tightened when he was serious or
upset, while the corners of his mouth shook now and again
17

and wrinkles became apparent near his cheeks. This trait
strengthened over the years and returned regularly, when he
sat in deep thought at the chess board. Doing so he some-
times held his head up with both arms, although he otherwise
had the thumb of an unusually big and strong hand on his
chin, while the other was busy with a gleaming cigar. He
moved the pieces according to the status of the game,
sometimes silently sliding them, sometimes putting them
down with strong pressure from his fingers and sometimes
with such precision as if the piece should be nailed to the
board. But the execution of the move was always short and
determined, never noisy or ugly. The pace of his play was
surprisingly fast, and he tried to demonstrate the value those
moves which looked surprising to the spectators, although
decisive to the opponent. Anderssen used to stand and then
bend over, as if resting from the strain of the game, and
accompanied his moves with short comments and lively
gestures. Then some of his remarks even sounded rude, and
he really disliked any arguments, especially from people he
knew.
This trait became stronger later as the Master's self-worth
grew through his great successes, but in his youth it lay
dormant due to his trust in authority, which kept his own
sense of infallibility subdued in the face of great players he
had yet to surpass. Still, Anderssen belonged to the so-called
bourgeoisie in his art as well as his outside lifestyle and inner
character. Born into a low class, he sensed his lack of fine
manners when he was together with chess friends from
higher society. This knowledge kept his natural respect of the
unknown alive, as it does with all self-made men, which of
course tends to the opposite after the newness wears away.
This young man's life was focused on his home town, where
he enjoyed his youth and made his first life-long friends, but
he also had to live through the poverty of his heritage. It was
there where he rose from his poor origin to an appropriate
circle, and where he found his first appreciation and his first
patronage. Everybody knew him there, and even his
immature personality, with its unpolished and often crude behav-
18

ior, caught between pride and embarrassment and all the
little and awkward blemishes of earlier failings, did not keep
him from progressing. It must have been this experience
which made his striving nature desire to expand his
education beyond the borders of his home town, by reaching for
unknown areas and new environments. At this time there
were two centers of German life, which provided a fertile
ground for the higher fostering of chess. It was in Berlin
where talented chess players met, and their frequent contests
led to a scientific treatment of the game which was the
foundation of the seminal Handbuch by Bilguer and v.d.Lasa
in 1843. In the middle of that year a weekly magazine, the
lUustrierte Zeitung, was published in Leipzig in grand style,
which even to this day keeps its reputation more than any of
the copy-cat magazines, thanks to the great leadership of the
fine and gifted book dealer J.J. Weber. This magazine gave to
chess (first by announcing the grand competitions between
Staunton and St. Amant, which made waves at that time)
an appropriate format in which to further cultivate our
recreation of the mind in Germany. Both places combined
the physical and personnel requirements needed for the
success of a periodical chess organ, as had been done in
England and France several years ago. The so-called
Deutsche Schachzeitung opened in Leipzig with fresh excitement,
whose early publishing was only made possible with the
appearance of periodical chess literature, and it drew quite
a few striving talents into its two or three year sphere of
activity. The monthly periodical which was also published in
1846 under the simple title Schachzeitung in Leipzig (which
is our own Deutsche Schachzeitung) received wide distribution
due to its varied content and known connections, which is
why it keeps its position even today, against competition from
Leipzig and Berlin.
It was in the natural interest of both chess circles that they
would look for an upcoming power such as the Master from
Breslau, whose reputation was already made through his
wonderful games and compositions, his relationship with the
lUustrierte Zeitung, and through a published chess almanac
19

with his picture in it which was widely distributed (1846),
and sometimes got him the honor of being the referee in
competitions. The Leipzig Schachzeitung, in its 4th edition,
published an analytical essay on the Muzio gambit, and the
monthly periodical in Berlin published an exciting essay
about chess activities in Breslau. Both events coincided with
the inner wish of our Master to expand his horizon. Repeated
trips to Leipzig and especially Berlin resulted, which
influenced his career and opened the way for his role in the
development of chess, especially in fostering the cultivation
of German chess. Starting in 1848, Anderssen traveled first
to Leipzig after his strength was challenged in a serious match
with D. Harrwitz. In the following years he repeatedly
traveled to Berlin, which had lost most of its famous Masters,
and won over the chess community through his wonderful
and still blossoming attacking game, especially his handling
of the Evans gambit. The time was ripe for a work of
unlimited trust; the great chess tournament of London 1851,
organized during the first World Exhibition, began to take
on an international character. The friends of chess in Berlin
made it their task to prepare the ingenious Master from
Breslau to represent the chess knighthood of their
Fatherland in the competition. How well Anderssen justified their
trust is generally known. He won a title for Germany in this
international "ghost fight" whose national importance was
felt not only by chess players, as the following poem
expresses:
This was a fight for well-timed glory:
We could not rest on past laurels;
We were down before all Christendom -
You have saved us with your checkmate!
But though your victory makes you a hero,
Be yet a dove bearing green branches
Which brings and revives our hope,
That this victory only begins the roundelay.
20

These deep words held a great promise. They not only came
true to the glorious raising of the Fatherland, but they were
also fulfilled for Anderssen personally. He won the palm
twice in big tournaments, London 1862 and Baden-Baden
1870, on the one hand for himself and on the other for
German nationalism. In the second case he was carried by
the personal awareness that German strength and strategy
would finally prevail in the more serious tournament of the
nations, which flared up at the same time.
Of these three praised high points in his life, our Master's
triumph in 1851 takes precedence, raising German self
esteem by breaking foreign superiority, as well as making
Anderssen s name known beyond his specialized field and
granting him a reputation of everlasting magic. This
reputation could not be shaken from then on, not even by some of
his defeats. By his own admission, Anderssen preferred that
sort of knighthood which forbids trying to save one's
reputation from rough seas, and he was always ready to put his
reputation on the line and to loose it, but always in the
unbreakable belief that he might at least recover his stake.
It was this knightly character that prompted Anderssen into
competition, to risk his reputation at every opportunity, even
when others would have been clever enough to stay away by
using external objections. Some of Anderssen s opponents
should have been thankful for their successes when,
occasionally, our Master's deeper strategy, which liked to unite
the nearest with the furthest, led him sometimes in a far-
reaching combination to miss an obvious but crucial minor
detail. In this sense we can better appreciate the results of
his meetings with Morphy (1858) andSteinitz (1866), as well
as his unlucky showing in the tournaments at Manchester
(1857), Vienna (1873) and Paris (1878). By the way,
Anderssen proved himself in these and other contests as an
outstanding chess thinker who understood the whole game,
pulling his opponent along with him and giving each game
its own character. Although he was unexcelled in the art of
creating positions which promised success, his offensive
moves sometimes came too rapidly and he quickly tired in
21

the face of an opponent's careful and tenacious defense. Still,
assiduous students of chess could learn much from his
stimulating game, which taught them to be well-rounded players,
and many of them, Masters with good reputations like Du-
fresne, Mieses, Suhle, Neumann, Zukertort and others,
realized that. Generally Anderssen maintained his superiority in
serious competitions or when he met them in bigger
tournaments. Here is not the place to describe such meetings; to
examine his playing style and theoretical work is beyond our
present object, but may be attempted at a different time. We
would like to add here that Anderssen, besides the already
mentioned tournaments and matches in various countries
(for example London in 1861 against Kolisch) and his many
visits to Berlin and Leipzig, visited Cologne repeatedly, and
once in 1861 he went to the Netherlands. Beginning in 1868
Anderssen made the German Chess Exhibitions greater still
simply by his presence, especially in the Rhine River area in
Aachen (1868), and in Barmen (1869), Krefeld (1871) and
Frankfurt (1878) where he played his last games; generally
he won first prize at these events.
It was not external success alone, that which put him above
patrons and Masters of the game, but rather it was his eternal
consistency and bright, well-conceived way of playing, which
found true admiration, even in foreign countries, especially
from the ingenious Kieseritzky; it was also his fine analytical
thinking process, which was expressed first in the Evans
gambit, later also in the Spanish game and reaching a deep
understanding in some other openings; it was also his
untiring readiness to fight anybody who wanted the honor of
playing chess against him; finally and last and foremost, his
excitement and enduring energy for chess, expressed by
deeds and not words, and on which all his thoughts were
spent. Anderssen was a teacher by occupation, and since
1855 served as Professor in Breslau. That he fulfilled his duty
in his state employment as a conscientious man is proven by
multiple citations from his superiors, and not only the fact
that he was chosen to teach the important subjects of
German language and mathematics in the upper grades. Con-
22

sider also his worries to find a proper successor, which occu-
pied his thoughts until the day he died, even during the last
hours of his fight for life, but most of all the undivided
admiration of his colleagues and the touching devotion of
his students, who mourn for the deceased as their competent
and loving teacher. Besides the careful shepherding of his
professional work, Anderssen found time and room in his
soul only for our recreation of the mind, which was inter-
twined since childhood with his very character. In order to
give the game his undivided attention he did not even seek
marital bliss, although his mother and sister, who he cared
for, desired it for him; he is survived only by this sister, a
brother living in America, and another sister who is married
in Silesia. Great words about his deep connection to the
noble game were spoken at his 50th anniversary celebration
by R.v. Gottschall, the representative of the chess club of
Leipzig, who described this event in his lively and poetic
manner as the golden wedding anniversary between the
Master and the chess muse, and truly a better parable to
praise Anderssen could not be thought of! The celebration
itself may be seen as the crowning event of a fulfilled life.
Any expressions of heightened self-assurance which come
naturally with success were mellowed by his quiet and factual
sincerity; even if under certain circumstances he tried to
keep his reputation by short and drastic remarks against
quick or unauthorized intrusions. Soon after 1851 his man-
nerism in society became more secure and his movements
became more rounded; his outstandingly modest and like-
able demeanor showed up later in his light humor, which
didn't fall short of occasional ribaldry. His facial expressions
became more and more pronounced, although it never lost
its original mildness. His forehead became more pro-
nounced, unlimited by a receding hairline, and his hair
nearly completely disappeared during his last years of life.
The friendly smile, with its calm irony set against darkly
shining eyes, was sometimes disturbed by a shy or furtive
glance, but won him the affection of people he met for the
first time, just as in earlier times. He could be very comfort-
23

able in cheerful company and liked to be stimulated by good
food and fine wines, whose taste he taught himself to
appreciate and enjoy. The presence of ladies also stimulated him
to interesting conversation and gallant phrases, whenever he
owed some attention for special considerations; but generally
he tried to stay away from socializing with the fair sex, which
only interested him in passing, though he did not go out of
his way to avoid large social events. But deep down in his
soul lived the sincerity of his assigned task to treat the game
of chess like he did his other profession. In conversation he
could not concentrate on different thoughts, be they
questions of science or art, or conversations about politics and
society; he always found a link to refer back to chess and the
way to play the game, or any other theme related to chess.
He did have a warm inner interest and a fine understanding
for the above mentioned areas, if it really mattered. His real
patriotic sense and his profound views kept him away from
senseless and cliche-ridden contemplations even in politics,
and kept his views in line with realty. In mathematics, his
real science, he tried to at least keep up with new advances;
concerning literature he announced that, although his deep-
thinking nature gave him a tendency to like Goethe and his
sense for fine expression ran to Platen, as a young teacher he
had a warm heart for Schiller, and once gave a speech in the
assembly hall of his school on the occasion of Schiller Day
in November 1859, about Schiller's works and their
influence. Although his personality seemed to be similar to
Beethoven, in music he showed an exclusive love for Mozart
and Weber, especially for their operas Don Juan and Oberon,
and he rarely missed any performances, though he very rarely
visited the theater. His judgment of the arts displayed the
healthy opinions of an educated man. If we would like to add
a word about his general views, especially of his attitude
toward religion, it may be enough to mention that he had
the same tolerance for all beliefs; if his mind sometimes
wandered to the divine, then he found no satisfaction in the
beliefs of a certain church, but in the admiration of the
Infinite. He told the priest, who came to see him in the last
days of his life, that he didn't need a pardon, that he was
24

prepared to go steadfast to his last fight, like he did the many
fights of his lifetime. During his last trip in the summer of
1878 to Paris and Frankfurt, already seriously suffering (from
a disease of the pericardium), he tried to stand straight with
nearly Olympian strength, and continued to work at special
occasions, for example at the "Abitur" exam in the autumn
of 1878. Only two days before his death did he finally switch
from the recliner and sofa to the bed, and he commented the
strongest attacks of pain with "If it only were over soon!" The
last day he spent half unconscious, but managed to still say
"Where are we going to move?" because he knew he had to
give up his official apartment due to the retirement he had
asked for. On the evening of March 13 at 9:00 p.m. he fell
asleep peacefully; a stroke had released him from his suffer-
ing, and his high-flying spirit, the place of so many ingenious
thoughts and energetic creations, departed from his sick
body:
Thinking and wanting, struggles and challenges,
Tarpaulin is tied, which is glowing in our eyes -
Conquered by the last checkmate,
Dies the boldest design which inspired us,
And nothing remains after the fight's ardor
But the bones, which rest in a box.
The procession, which followed the deceased from the
celebrations in the house of mourning to his last resting place
could not be overseen. His colleagues of the
Friedrichs-Gymnasium and all his students, past and present, representatives
of the chess club of Breslau, acquaintances and chess friends
met and decorated the coffin with a multitude of flowers.
Laurel wreaths with dedications arrived from chess circles
far away, such as Berlin, Leipzig, Stettin, Vienna and other
cities. The laurels will be green forever like the honorable
remembrance of our immortalized, who earned an estate in
the history of chess and who forever secured a place in the
hearts of all true friends of this noble recreation of the mind.

The Eichborn Manuscript
Louis Eichborn was a well-to-do
banker in Breslau, and a patron of the
game with whom Anderssen frequently
played chess. After Eichborn's death
there were found among his papers a
collection of games, including the
following (Nos. 822-857) against
Anderssen. Unfortunately, Eichborn only
included his wins and a few draws, and
so the games may be safely classified
as "minor."

Note
a) Odds games are not included in
this index.
b) The following games were played
with colors reversed. For example,
in game 12 below Anderssen had the
Black pieces but moved first, and so
the original score would have read
"l.e5 e4 2.f5 exf5 3.Nf6 g4," etc. For
convenience these games are
presented in their modern, "mirror
image" format.

Textual Note

Textual Note
The three sources used to compile
Anderssen's game scores are, in
order of importance:
1. von Gottschall, Dr. Hermann.
Adolph Anderssen, dgr Altmeigter
deutscher Schachspielkunst. Leipzig:
Verlag von Veit & Co., 1912.
2. Levy, David & Kevin O'Connell,
eds. Oxford Encyclopedia of Chess
Games. Oxford: Oxford University
Press, 1981.
3. Pollak, Georg. Weltgeschichte des
Schachs. Adolph Anderssen.
Hamburg: Verlag Wildhagen, 1963.
Pollak's "Redbook" contained no
new games, but was invaluable for
cross-checking results, colors and
site, as well as deviations in the game
text itself. The Encyclopedia has
only about 350 Anderssen games,
but nearly 100 of these are not given
in the other sources. Levy and
O'Connell were able to research
archival material which, if continued
for the period 1867-1879, would
doubtless yield two or three dozen
additional games. It should be
mentioned that Game Nos. 536 and 537
are found only in Ludwig Bach-
mann's Schachmeister Steinitz, but
they seem to be genuine.
The game commentary in von
Gottschall's book is the bedrock
upon which most of the annotations
in this volume are constructed. So
foundational is von Gottschall's
compilation that we should take a
moment to examine its make-up.
Altmeister Anderssen contains
analysis from a wide variety of chess maga-
zines and newspaper articles,
including those edited by
Anderssen, Zukertort, Staunton,
Lowenthal and many others.
Tournament books, game collections and
private papers were also
incorporated, not to mention von
Gottschall's own chess library. Thus
we find analysis by Steinitz, Ma-
roczy, Falkbeer, Lange, Neumann,
Riemann — the list is almost
endless.
Only occaisonally does von
Gottschall directly cite his source,
and only then if the subject arises
naturally, almost as an aside.
Variations and alternate lines of play are
given not with regard to
"ownership," but as the received wisdom
and consensus of those in authority,
a common legacy for all to enjoy.
After assembling his material von
Gottschall then edited, amended,
corrected and added his own
observations, until now it is all but
impossible to sort out who conceived
which piece of analysis. To further
hinder such an attempt, there is the
frequent case of early analysis being
corrected by later writers, so that an

348
Adolph Anderssen
idea from Lowenthal may be
elaborated by Steinitz and further refined
by Lasker! In short, we simply do not
know how most of the analysis in
Altmeister Anderssen came into
existence, but the phrase "use it or lose
it" applies here — and in this case to
"lose it" meant historical oblivion.
It is apparent, however, that the
analysis seen in Game Nos. 11-
31 (the London 1851 tournament),
to cite one example, is largely drawn
from Staunton's tournament book.
The games against Zukertort almost
all have notes published by
Zukertort, if we bear in mind that many of
these ideas were probably discussed
in the post-mortem with Anderssen
himself. The same holds true of the
games with Riemann, and the
extensive analysis in his notebook.
Cases like these abound and, again,
unraveling von Gottschall's sources
would require something beyond
scholarship.
The vast commentary found in
Altmeister Anderssen forms the
analytical basis for the annotations in this
book. We have translated the
variations into modern algebraic
notation, and overlaid a diacritical
language of symbols largely
unavailable to the Old Masters. Modern
opening books and game references
were consulted — even the aid of
chess-playing computer software
was enlisted — with many new lines
included and flawed analysis
reworked or discarded. FIDE Master
Ron Burnett has closely edited the
games, adding evaluations,
correcting or enhancing many variations
and opening entirely new lines of
inquiry. The final annotations in
this volume are quite polished and
pleasing, although far removed from
their documentary source.
Among contemporary players who
have analyzed Anderssen's games
we wish to mention Macon Shibut,
who found a key improvement in
Game No. 51 given as the second
note to Black's 58th move. GM
Anatoly Lein corrected the
annotations in Part III, as mentioned in the
Foreword, but he also analyzed the
note to White's 20th move in Game
No. 563. GM Robert Hubner's
article on The Immortal Game,
published under "Abfall #4" in ChessBase
Magazine (no. 11, May/June 1989),
is the basis for Game No. 340. We
understand that Hubner is not
pleased with the English translation
of his article, from which we had to
work, but it is an excellent survey of
existing analysis presented with
many new ideas.
The following index lists what has
been discovered about the
annotations in this book, and it is fairly easy
to decipher. For example, the first
entry under Maroczy's name reads
"51-B58[a],M which means that Ma-
roczy analyzed the first note to
Black's 58th move in Game No. 51.
