The Napoleon Opening is an irregular chess opening starting with the moves: :1. e4 e5 :2. Qf3 As with the similar Wayward Queen Attack (2.Qh5), White hopes for the Scholar's Mate (2.Qf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5?? 4.Qxf7#), but Black can easily avoid the trap. ==History== The Napoleon Opening is named after the French general and emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, who had a deep love of chess but was said to be a mediocre player.〔Murray, H.J.R. ''A History of Chess'' (London: Oxford University Press), 1913, p. 877.〕 The name came into use after mid-nineteenth century publications reported that he played this opening in an 1809 game which he lost to The Turk, a chess automaton operated at the time by Johann Allgaier.〔Murray, H.J.R. ''A Short History of Chess'' (London: Oxford University Press), 1963 posthumously, p. 79.〕 The name may also be a slighting reference to Napoleon's empress, Josephine and her scandalous infidelities,〔(Napoleon Himself, 2005, John Schneider )〕 hence Napoleon's inability to keep his Queen at home. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Napoleon Opening」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
