Recently
Josep Alió informed us about a meeting of the Spanish KWA members
taking place on September 27th, 2005 at his home town Tarragona. It’s
already the second meeting of this kind, we briefly reported on the last
year’s one (at Sabadell, 14-12-2004) on the occasion of the birthday
of José A. Garzon (see birthdays
of February 2005). This time again the "troika" José
A. Garzón (Valencia), Miquel Artigas (Sabadell) and Josep Alió
(Tarragona) came together – they call themselves "CIRCULO JOSÉ
PALUZÍE" (José Paluzíe’s Club) – to
talk about chess, its literature and its history.
Naturally our three Spanish friends discussed future projects too, particularly
José A. Garzon offered great news: he has already finished his current
research project which will be published soon; a book whose central theme
is the history of chess and the origin of modern chess, the author’s
favourite field of work. We are pleased to say that it will come out in
two editions, a Spanish and an English one. More details will be shortly
available, our KWA members will surely look forward impatiently to this
highly interesting book event!
