The Giuoco Piano - 2nd hand
Eduard Gufeld, Oleg Stetsko
Descrizione
The Giuoco Piano (Italian for “quiet game”) is the oldest recorded chess opening, appearing as one of 12 chess openings detailed in the Göttingen manuscript over five hundred years ago. It is popular with juniors and chess novices, as the basic ideas of this opening are simple to understand: rapid development, control of the centre, and an attack on the vulnerable f7-square.
Recent years have shown an increasing tendency for experienced players to return to their roots, and revisit the Giuoco Piano. Unlike some of the more modern openings which have been extensively analysed in the last few decades, the Giuoco Piano has proved fertile ground for experimentation and innovation.
