He first learned the moves of chess at the age of 12 years and has continued to play ever since. Besides remaining a keen chess player, his passion for the game has led him over time to become a scholar and interpreter of the spirit of the game in all its manifestations, with particular regard to how the game’s historical, philosophical, psychological and symbolic aspects relate to everyday life.
