The Obres e Trobes (the first book printed in Spain in 1474 in Valencia) is an art competition held on March 25 of that year. There are many poets who have poems and couplets in this art competition, and we find three poets among them, writers of scachs d'amor: Francesc Castellvi, Bernard Fenollar and Narcis de Vinyoles. The Obres e Trobes is considered to be the first literary work printed in Spain of which the only known copy in the world is preserved in the University Library of Valencia. It consists of 60 leaves without foliation and signature and is written in Roman letters on paper with hand and star watermark. The three poets, as we see, already knew each other. Seeing the relationship they had with King Ferdinand and knowing his passion for the game of chess, there may be another thing they thought about around 1475. It was time to change the figure of the queen and bishop on the chessboard and inform the King by means of their poem in the form of a manuscript."

The queenship of the first European Renaissance queen regnant never ceases to fascinate. As fascists to feminists fight over Isabel’s legacy, we ask which recyclings of her image are legitimate or appropriate. Or has this figure taken on a life of her own?

Today most chess historians agree that the weak chess queen, named "dame" in France as from the XIV century, changed to a powerful chess queen in Spain in 1475. Around this year we also see a change of the weak bishop to a strong bishop, according to the chess poem Scachs d'amor. In order to strengthen our hypothesis of Isabella I of Castile (Isabel la Católica) we have written a book about the new bishop and a book about Scachs d'amor in English. Concentrating now on Virgin Mary in relationship with Isabella I of Castile we observe that the Augustinian monastic Martin de Córdoba wrote in 1468 the work El Jardin de las donzellas. It was directed to Princess Isabel I of Castile with the intention to contribute to her education as future Queen. Cordoba was the first writer who draws equivalencies between Isabella I of Castile and Virgin Mary, which became one of her standard portrayals. Shorty thereafter we see the appearance of a new powerful chess queen.

Since 1987 we have defended in articles that the Spanish queen Isabella I of Castile (Isabel la Catolica) was the new chess queen (dama) on the chessboard. Other publications were in 1990, 1994, 1997, and 2004. And of course, Marilyn Yalom studied our book during her visit to the National Library in The Hague (Holland) before she wrote Birth of the Chess Queen in 2004. In her book one cannot see that in 1987, 1990, and 1994 we already published material about Isabel la Catolica (Isabel I of Castile) being the new powerful dama or chess queen on the chessboard. In other words we can state here that we have been studying Spanish history and its chess literature for over 30 years. Since 2003 we have also known the development of the new bishop in chess."

Every checkers player knows about Woldouby's famous position. This 21 year-old Senegalese drew a lot of attention in Paris in 1910 when he won against all challengers in his store located in the Senegalese village of the Exposition of Jardin d'Acclimatation zoologique. No one understood how this player could win all the games that fast. After Amadou Kandie Woldouby was the second African who participated in a checkers tournament in Paris since he became the city champion in 1911. In 1911 he left France and no one knew his whereabouts since then. In this biography we show that Weiss' golpe (shot) actually was Woldouby's golpe, since he won against Isidore Weiss with it. On the other hand we want to show that Woldouby returned to Senegal in 1911 to take the place of a checkers runner-up in 1913. His biography deserves a worthy place in the history of checkers, as he was the prominent predecessor of the famous Senegalese checkers player Baba Sy.

Según la crónica de López de Ayala, don Pedro dejó a la reina doña Blanca dos días después de su boda, para volver a reunirse con María de Padilla. Por otra parte la muerte de doña Blanca, con solo 25 años, nunca se ha podido aclarar. Hay varias versiones de su muerte. Hasta ahora la única monografía en un libro que se ha escrito sobre la reina doña Blanca de Borbón ha sido un librito de 80 páginas del Dr. Juan Antonio Martínez Gómez-Gordo (1924-1913), alumno predilecto del doctor don Gregorio Marañón. Creo, por tanto, que en la historia de don Pedro I no se ha estudiado suficientemente el papel de Francia. Vale la pena estudiar más a fondo las actuaciones de los hermanos de doña Blanca; la actuación del rey francés Charles V, cuñado de doña Blanca; la actuación del visionario Jean de Roquetaillade, y la actuación del franciscano, el infante Pedro de Aragón. Sin duda alguna la temática de esta obra llena el vacío que existía en la literatura nacional.

El Archivo Municipal de Murcia es una verdadera joya, donde se tienen documentos desde el siglo XIII hasta hoy. Por eso es tan sospechoso que en esta rica documentación, con respecto al reinado de Pedro I, falte el Cartulario Real entre los años 1355 y 1367, y también los Libros de Actas Capitulares del reinado, a excepción del correspondiente a 1364-1365. Por lo tanto, una de las épocas más difíciles para la historia de Murcia es tal vez aquella, cuando don Pedro I estuvo al poder en Castilla. Murcia siempre fue fiel a su rey y le defendió constantemente durante su reinado. Lógicamente escritores como Bellot, Zurita, Cáscales y muchos otros no estaban al tanto de la correspondencia secreta del Papa Inocencio VI (1352-1362) con don Fadrique, Maestre de la Orden de Santiago. Probablemente ahora, con estas nuevas investigaciones se podrán ver con otros ojos las actuaciones del rey castellano. Por tanto, con esta obra pretendo llenar un vacío en los libros de historia en Murcia.

La Santa Inquisición se valía antes del año 1586 de la persona Pedro Cachopo, escribano del valle de Ricote, para así poder llegar al sujeto en cada rincón del territorio del valle. Extraño es el hecho de que el inquisidor Hernando Manrique - en otros sitios le llaman Jerónimo Manrique - tuvo una casa en Blanca. ¿Porqué quiso vivir este inquisidor justamente entre los moriscos blanqueños? Este inquisidor fue denunciado por cohecho al recibir numerosos regalos; sobre todo, puercos, jabalís, pescados, salchichones y ropas. Tampoco era hombre que cumplía con su obligación de visitar cárceles cada quince días. ¿Que justicia podían esperar los moriscos del valle de un personaje así de la Santa Inquisición de Murcia? ¿Cuántas reuniones no ha tenido el odioso escribano, Pedro Cachopo con el inquisidor Manrique? No lo sabemos, pero conociendo ya mejor a Cachopo deberían haber sido muchísimas, pues de otra forma no se puede explicar la calamidad que estaba por venir al valle.

Lucena era hijo de Juan Ramírez de Lucena, embajador de los Reyes Católicos. Gracias a los viajes de su padre Lucena pudo viajar a Italia y Francia y conocer las innovaciones con respecto al ajedrez y al teatro. Nacido en Aragón, fue en sus años de estudiante de leyes en Salamanca cuando conoció a Juan del Encina. Entre ambos se desarrolló una amistad que iba a durar toda la vida. Lucena estaba trabajando en la imprenta de Nebrija en los años 1493-1495, donde le ayudó con ciertos términos para su diccionario de latín de 1495. Al parecer, Lucena intentaba traducir y editar en castellano libros en latín y así vemos aparecer: Mujeres ilustres en romance (1494) Fábulas de Esopo (1495), los libros de Aeneas Silvo Piccolomini (1496), Repetición de amores y Arte de Ajedrez (1497), Vita Beata (1499), El Jardin de nobles doncellas (1500). Poco después iba a dirigir y editar en Italia las nuevas cenas en la obra de Calisto y Melibea con la valiosa ayuda de su gran amigo Juan del Encina.
