Modern Shatranj. 
A bridge between modern chess and the historic game of Shatranj. (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]I finally connected with this mentally before your comment, Joe. It should be a reference. Look at CVP reference logos, then it would be okie-dokie. What the author is doing here is what Betza had to do back in 1972 or 1968, or Duke's thought processes in 1992. It's not a game, not a CV, but an exercise. Namely, just comprehend the change and transition from PastPastChess to PastChess, ahistorically, and with total indifference for audience, if any. I get it now. I can talk Joycean about it, just see the sentences 3 and 4 back. It's just in the wrong directory. Keep the old forms in conscious memory with modicum of respect, that every grand-master vows to forget forever more and totally dis-respect and dis-regard.
