PREFACE

In offering this collection of problems to the Chess community,


I feel that a few prefatory words are required by way of explana-
tion. Several previous composers have come before the public
in the same manner, among whom I may enumerate Mr. Kling,
Mr. Brown of Leeds, and J. B. of Bridport. Their example has
given me confidence, and I venture to hope that the present
collection will be found to bear some features especially dis-
tinctive of English problems, such as may justify my publishing
it in a separate form.
It is certain that the great body of Chess amateurs have al-
ways felt an especial interest in the composition and solution
of problems. For ten persons who take up a magazine or news-
paper to examine a game, probably a hundred may be found
who only look to the problems. How often do we see a man of
powerful brain devoting a spare half hour to the careful scru-
tiny of a diagram in the Illustrated London News. This study is
rewarded by that legitimate gratification which the successful
exertion of the intellect always brings with it. But the same man
would not, and could not, have devoted the necessary time
and energy to a difficult contest over the board.
The innumerable solutions of those problems constantly
forwarded to the Era, the Illustrated London News, the Field,
and many other newspapers, all agree with one consent in the
same story, viz., the increasing popularity of problem making
and solving.
Problems are indeed the poetry of Chess. The same depth of
imagination, the same quick perception of the beautiful, the
5
6 frank healey: 200 chess problems

same fecundity of invention, which we demand from the poet,


are to be found, under a different form, in the humble labours
of the problematist. Surely, without pressing the analogy too
far, we may say that the thirty-two pieces form the alphabet of
the composer, while the Chess board is the paper, and the posi-
tions finally resulting may be fairly likened to so many stanzas.
Nor are painting and sculpture alien themes. But why should
I proceed
“To paint new colours in the bow of Heaven
And throw fresh perfume on the violet.”

Turning for a brief moment to the history of problems, it can-


not but strike the student with some surprise to discover how
few names, comparatively speaking, are inscribed on the hon-
ourable roll of inventors. From the illustrious Damiano down-
wards, the following brief register includes, I believe, most
of the celebrities to our own day:—Lolli, Ponziani, Stamma,
D’Orville, Küper, Mendheim, Kieseritzky, and Silbersmidt. In
our own time, we have indeed a brilliant constellation of gen-
ius, in which Anderssen, Kling, Bayer, Horwitz, and Grosde-
mange, among our continental brethren—Angas, Bolton, Bone,
K. A. Browne, J. B. of Bridport, Campbell, M‘Arthur, Grimshaw,
T. Smith, C. W. of Sunbury, and Turton, among ourselves, with
Theodore Brown, S. Lloyd, and E. B. Cook in America—shine
pre-eminent.
Coming now to compare the ancient with the modern
school of problems, I feel much diffidence in attempting so
delicatc a task. It has been justly observed by a clever Span-
ish writer that there is as much difference between the styles
of two skilful problem composers as between the paintings of
Raphael and Titian, the one excelling in expression, the other
in colour. Similarly one problematist is known for his original-
ity and brilliancy of conception, while another excels in giving
that artistic finish which really constitutes the perfect problem.
In truth, the beauty of a problem does not consist so much in
the intricacy of the theme as in the manner in which the idea
preface 7

is treated or woven in by the composer. The finest end games


have often a very simple solution, but it is so hidden among
numerous other modes of play which mislead the solver that it
is very difficult to discover.
The main feature in the works of the earlier composers is the
great number of moves required for their solution. There are in
general few variations, but a series of forced checks and bold
sacrifices conducts the student to the final mate. Though diffi-
cult to solve, they were comparatively easy to invent. In a word,
although much admired on account of their intricacy and in-
genuity, they lack the depth and complexity which character-
ise the best productions of the present day.
Perhaps the most convenient way of classifying problems
is to divide them into three main branches—viz., 1. Ordinary
problems, i. e., those in which mate is to be given in a cer-
tain number of moves; 2. Conditional problems, i. e., those
in which mate is to be given by a particular piece or Pawn, or
upon a particular square, or in which the mate is hampered
by some similar stipulations; 3. Suicidal Problems, i. e., those
in which White compels Black to checkmate him in a certain
number of moves. The last two species are manifestly unpopu-
lar with English players of the present day. They are more arti-
ficial, more unnatural, less practical, and less instructive than
the former. Upon this head I cannot better express my delib-
erate judgment than in the language of Herr Lowenthal in his
preface to the Era Problem Tournament. “Suicidal and condi-
tional problems have gone out of fashion, and the inference
is, that the fanciful modes of play which they illustrate have
fallen into desuetude. Few games are now played in which the
giver of odds undertakes to compel his adversary to mate him
or to give mate on a marked square, and the kind of problems
referred to have consequently lost their use, and with it their
interest. We have fewer problems in which it is almost insuper-
ably difficult to hide the design, fewer still of those intermina-
ble studies in which the moves approach in point of number to
the tales of the thousand and one nights. In short, mere trifles
8 frank healey: 200 chess problems

are disregarded, and ponderous puzzles are thrown aside. The


lovers of problems are turning to the elegant, the original, and
the practically useful, and in that way can render their pursuit
profitable to the student and interesting to the accomplished
Chess-player.’’

London, January, 1866. F. H.

Notes to Electronic Edition

This edition is based on the 1866 edition, published by Long-


mans, Green & Co., London. Solutions have been converted to
algebraic form, but otherwise follow the original.
All problems have been computer-tested, using Matthieu
Leschemelle’s Problemiste. Found errors have been indicated
below the diagram as follows: [†] indicates a problem without
a solution in the stipulated number of moves, [*] indicates a
problem with multiple solutions, and [§] a problem with short
solution(s). Details have been added, in brackets, to the solu-
tions, though minor errors have been silently corrected.
