Elias Stein (France, 05.02.1748 - 12.09.1812, Netherlands)

Chessplayer, Chess teacher

He died at the age of 64. As many as there are squares on the chessboard. Bobby Fischer died at the age of 64. The chess study composer Helmuth Steniczka also died at the age of 64.

He was a chess teacher of the sons of the Dutch Stadhouder Willem V including the later King Willem I.

He involved the chess strategy in the war strategy and treated both subjects as a game.

He also came up with the idea of answering the first move of the queenpawn d2-d4 with the move f7-f5, resulting in the Dutch opening.

Friedrich Wilhelm von Mauvillon, who published a book in 1827 about the chess game, writes in Stein's introduction of this work:

"He has never found his master and has been separated as an unconquered chess player of this world."

Not only the princes in the city court, but also many others, including numerous foreign envoys in The Hague, wanted to follow chess lessons at Elias Stein.

According to Von Mauvillon, you did not count as a chess player until about 1800 when you had been following Stein's chess lessons.

He wrote books about chess.

Elias Stein (5 February 1748, in Forbach – 12 September 1812, in The Hague) was a Dutch chess master. Born in Lorraine into a Jewish family, he settled in The Hague.

Stein was also employed as chess teacher of the sons of William V, Prince of Orange, and thereby introduced chess to the Dutch high society.

He recommended what is now known as Dutch Defence as the best reply to 1.d4 in his book Nouvel essai sur le jeu des échecs, avec des réflexions militaires relatives à ce jeu (1789). His biography was written by lieutenant-colonel F.W. von Mauvillon in the book Anweisung zur Erlernung des Schachspiels (Essen, Germany, 1827).
