Subject: Dynamic style
|
When reading a descriptions of some of the great chess players, the
term "dynamic style' is sometimes used. I have a general idea what
that means, but does it mean anything specific? Does it mean anything
at all? Is it just another way to say 'attacking style'? What is the
opposite of 'dynamic style'? Who's chess is the best example of
dynamic?

a dynamic position means the position is full of changes on the horizon.
the opposite, a static position, is more stable and apt to stay the
same. Sacrificial attacks are usually a dynamic type of position. does
this help ?

Oh, also, Lasker is a great example of dynamic defense, fwiw.

"Dynamic" doesn't mean "attacking" - as you can choose to play dynamic
defense, as well.
Dynamic, in chess terms, just means a reliance on piece activity rather
than the positional weaknesses to achieve your aims.
For example, in many variations of the open sicilian, when black plays
...d6 and ...e5, he's creating static weaknesses (the d5 and d6 squares)
but he hopes that the good activity of his pieces will give him
compensation (making it hard for white to exploit the d5 square or gang
up on the d6 pawn).

I would recommend the book "Dynamic Chess" by R.N. Coles as at least
a primer on this subject. I believe used copies are still readily
available.
