{ Hello dear people and welcome to another chess study! In this study, I've decided that I want to go into the history of chess a bit. So, I went back to the late 15th, early 16th century. Time when Luis Ramirez de Lucena really dominated when it comes to chess. He is also a writer of one of the oldest chess books, "Repetition of Love and the Art of Playing Chess with 150 Games". We'll talk about it as well and we'll take a deep dive into it as it can teach y'all somethin'. Just have to say before we start, leave a like if you liked this study, if it entertained you and/or if it thought you somethin' new. } *
