* [[AdaChess]] <ref>[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamerlane_(poem)|Tamerlane (poem) from Wikipedia]]: The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epic_poetry|epic poem]] by [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Allan_Poe|Edgar Allan Poe]] follows the life of a Turkic conqueror known as Tamerlane. Tamerlane ignores the young love he has for a peasant in order to achieve power. On his deathbed, he regrets this decision to create "a kingdom [in exchange] for a broken heart". The peasant is named Ada in most of Poe's original version of the poem. The name "Ada" is likely a reference to [[Mathematician#Lovelace|Ada Lovelace]], the daughter of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Byron|Lord Byron]] ...</ref>
