The Italian Game Is Back. Here's How to Play It at the Highest Level.
With the Berlin Wall and Marshall Attack neutralizing the Ruy Lopez for many top players, the Italian Game has surged back into elite chess. In this two-volume work, Ukrainian GM Martyn Kravtsiv (peak rating 2685) shares his complete White repertoire — built from deep personal experience and packed with fresh, dangerous ideas.
Volume 1 Covers:
- The Petroff Defence (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6): Kravtsiv advocates the sharp 3.Nxe5 d6 4.Nf3 Nxe4 5.Nc3 variation, with a wealth of untested and dangerous ideas to put Black under immediate pressure
- The Bishop's Opening (2.Bc4): A flexible move order that can be used as an Anti-Petroff weapon or as a standalone system — with options to transpose into the main Italian lines
Combining this volume with Volume 2 gives you a complete, cohesive Italian repertoire ready for club and tournament play.
Join the Italian Renaissance. Volume 1 — the foundation of your new White repertoire.
