Emanuel Lasker - Volume 3 is the final volume of the Lasker trilogy, covering the later part of his life from 1914 onward and his many ambitions and writings in chess and science.
Richard Forster’s biographical compass follows the highs and lows of the world champion during World War I, the loss of the world championship, the economic crisis in Germany, the rise of the Nazis, and Lasker’s escape, illustrated with dozens of private documents and letters. Sergey Voronkov also presents Lasker’s tournament successes in Russia between 1896 and 1936, along with the difficult circumstances of Lasker and his wife in Soviet Russia in the mid-1930s.
Jan Sprenger, Marco Baldauf, Ulrich Sieg, and Fernand Gobet examine Lasker as a Jewish intellectual in the post-war era, his scientific ambitions as a philosopher, and his late unpublished work on psychology, discussed here for the first time ever. Egbert Meissenburg and Richard Forster add an overview of Lasker’s writings on chess and other games, mathematics, philosophy, and more, translated into more than twenty languages, while Herbert Bastian and Mihail Marin explore his influence as a writer, teacher, and still-formidable player in his sixties.
