THE LAST GENIUS
      Go-cart Jaspers carried out in his famous Genius and madness most succeeded
in finding of the analyses of the subtle and fragile frontier line that in the human being runs between the absolute genius and the emotional imbalance. The work of the illustrious psychiatrist and philosopher German existencialist would have prospered greatly with the collision of the life and work of Robert James “ Bobby “ Fischer, the biggest chess player of the history, dead in Iceland at the age of 64.
     It was a heavy shower, that everything did it to almost superhuman scale and did it drinking the winds of the life: it achieved the title of Big International Teacher 15 years after age, and it was the youngest of the candidates for the championship of the world.
     It schemed fantastic battles, which he led with showy astuteness and aggressiveness and consumó with amazing combinations. In a few years it was dominating the chess as nobody.
EXTRAVAGANT
     That was his number and amazement demonstrates it the fact that in his vertiginous adventure it condensed the extravagance of legendary Paul Charles Murphy (he was enduring certain species of fetishism for the woman''s shoes that he was placing in the shape of half moon to contemplate them for a long time); the geniuses of Raúl Capablanca, which between move and move was covering to supporting sexual relations with his last feminine conquest); or the shyness of Akiba Rubinstein (it was sheltering in a corner of the room not to see the move of his opponent). All geniuses, but at a high price. Or perhaps not.
     To this brotherhood it belonged for right proper Fischer. The best was known and it was acting as such. In the match that for the title of world champion developed in 1972 in Reykjavik (Iceland) it broke mentally the Russian Boris Spassky with variants of impossible resolution for the advisers of the Soviet one.
     The reconstruction of these games they are a delight for excited of the chess, for Bobby''s bold inventive and fierce aggressiveness (“ There Exist the hard players and the good boys; I am a hard player ”, he declared)
     Three years later, nevertheless, the International Federation took the title from him because it refused to defend it opposite to Anatoly Karpov.
MADMAN
     It redoubled the bet in the revenge before Spassky, which played in 1992. Fischer presented himself with a bodyguard''s cohort, pushed back six tables that had been made especially, demanded modifications from the chair that he would use and obtained that the toilets of the luxurious hotel where the meeting developed three centimeters were raised for his biggest serviceability. At the edge of an attack of nerves, the Russian demanded to check by means of beams the Xth and chemical tests the chair of Fischer because they were suspecting that it was expressing electromagnetic waves that were disturbing the concentration of Spassky
     Son of a Jewish woman, and as such, according to the Jewish cánones, Jew the same one because it had been conceived by a Jewish woman, transformed in an anti-Semitic fanatic. He went so far as to affirm that a mafia of communist and Jewish agents was chasing him to poison him, that his fortune has been stolen in a conspiracy of agents of the CIA and that Hitler was not sufficiently far in his repression of the “ Jewish rats ”. The demolition of the Towers celebrated Twins: " It was already time of that someone was kicking in the bottom to the United States ”.
     The American and European means have compared his avatar with that of John Nash. Nobel Prize of economy of 1994 for his contributions to the Theory of Games. His marvellous mathematical mind endured the embate of hallions that they led it to being treated like schizophrenic. (Russell Crowe personified magistralmente in the excellent movie A Brilliant Mind) The lives of both demonstrated that yes, a subtle and fragile frontier line exists between the absolute genius and the emotional imbalance.Escriba aquí su traducción.
