Friedrich Palitzsch
Friedrich Martin Palitzsch (born October 25, 1889 in Dresden , † April 2, 1932 in Dresden) was a German chess composer , theorist and editor in the field of chess .
Chess composition
Friedrich Palitzsch was an important theorist of the logical school (also New German School called ). His essay The Distraction, the Element of Indirect Combination acquired fundamental importance. In it he divided the steering black figures (indirect maneuvers) in two basic types: Hinlenkung and distraction .
From 1918 he systematically investigated his Dresden idea , which has since been an integral part of the Logical School :
- In the audition, a black piece (or pawn) can parry a threat . This parade is switched off by deflecting or deflecting a figure, but at the same time an analog parade of another figure is enabled (substitute defender). With this new parade, there is damage to black, which is the purpose of the whole combination.
Palitzsch exchanged ideas with Rudolf Leopold , Gerhard Kaiser and Hans Vetter in the Dresden Association. A special form of the Dresdner , the Palitzsch-Dresdner , perpetuated his work in this area.
