One volume contains the identical reproduction (facsimile) of the original book of 1497 (Repetición de amores y arte de ajedrez) and the other (El Incunable de Lucena: Primer Arte de Ajedrez Moderno) an extensive critical, historical and chess analysis of what Lucena wrote.
"El Incunable de Lucena: Primer Arte de Ajedrez Moderno" is a leading work on the history of chess. It is a modern, analytical study of the historical book "Repetición de amores y arte de ajedrez" (circa 1497) by Luis Ramírez de Lucena.
Lucena's work records the radical change from the old Arabic rules to the modern ones. It is the time when the Queen and the Bishop acquire their current, expanded moves, making the game much faster.
