 | | Hypermodern openings include the Réti Opening, King's Indian, Queen's Indian, Nimzo-Indian, Bogo-Indian, and Old Indian Defences, the Catalan Opening, the King's Indian Attack, Alekhine's Defence, the Modern Defense and to a lesser degree the English Opening. |
 | | This school of thought was in turn a reaction to the earlier swashbuckling style of Adolf Anderssen, Henry Blackburne and others who represented the Romantic school. |
 | | Hypermodernism is a school of chess thought which advocates controlling the center of the board with distant pieces rather than with pawns, thus inviting the opponent to occupy the center with pawns which can then become objects of attack. |
