Problemism
Creative activity based on the rules of the combinative board games (Set of ladies, set of failures), the problemism consists in seeking sequences of play with forced profit.
The object of the problemism is the creation of compositions, called Problème S, in which a combinative tactical element is presented.
The essential characteristics of a problem are the unicity of the solution, the legality of the position and the active participation of all the parts.
The problemism can be regarded a didactic element of the play and as a pastime for the type-setters and the amateurs of beautiful combinations.
This activity is present in the set of failures under the term of Composition échiquéenne.
It also is very developed in the Jeu of ladies because of the obligatory character of the catch in this play.
The construction of a problem of set of ladies is governed by specific rules, defined by the commission of the international problemism emanating from the world federation of the set of ladies.
Contests of national and international problems are organized regularly and best the Problémiste S is rewarded by points for control.
Example of problem of set of ladies:
