9788584405800LUMEN JURIS. new. � poss�vel observar que na perspectiva constitucional brasileira a matǸria trabalhista se insere no rol dos direitos e garantias fundamentais sociais em conson�ncia com a ordem social brasileira. Indubitavelmente os direitos laborais encontram-se amplamente dispostos e reconhecido na dogmǭtica constitucional brasileira. Do Estado liberal ao Estado Social o Direito do Trabalho evidencia-se desde o fim da Rep�blica Velha com o surgimento da Consolida��o das Leis Trabalhistas e por desiderato a primeira Constitui��o liberal-intervencionista de 1934 em que se avulta a primazia da ordem social brasileira. De lǭ para cǭ somam-se a conjuga��o de esfor��os e fatos hist��ricos para a efetiva concretiza��o dos direitos laborais como acesso �� dignidade do trabalho e �� renda. Ocorre que os direitos e garantias fundamentais sociais n�o se encontram petrificados explicitamente no n�cleo irreformǭvel da Constitui��o e para tanto carecem da imprescind�vel seguran��a jur�dica que resguarda semelhantes direitos. A Constitui��o Brasileira traz como fundamento da Rep�blica alǸm da dignidade da pessoa humana os valores sociais do trabalho e da livre iniciativa. Constitui objetivos fundamentais da Rep�blica Federativa do Brasil a constru��o de uma sociedade livre justa e solidǭria e a garantia do desenvolvimento nacional. Comprova-se a dire��o tomada pelo constituinte trazer uma constitui��o onde a livre iniciativa e os valores sociais do trabalho devem estar em plena sintonia como forma de preservar a dignidade do trabalhador. Cumpre ressaltar que por meio do comportamento que preza os resultados individuais e coletivos Ǹ que encontra-se a identidade constitucional democrǭtica brasileira cujos fundamento s�o os valores sociais do trabalho e da livre iniciativa e tem por objetivo a redu��o das desigualdades sociais regionais e erradica��o da pobreza.

1739ST12883Leyden: Johann Arnold Langerak 1739. First Edition in Latin. 540 x 380 mm. 21 1/4 x 15". 70 leaves of text.Translated by William Dundass. <br/> Original red quarter vellum over marbled boards raised bands UNTRIMMED EDGES. Engraved printer's device on title large decorative initials and tailpieces EXTRA ENGRAVED TITLE AND 114 STRIKING PLATES OF ANATOMICAL FIGURES three folding. Wellcome II 401; Heirs of Hippocrates 468; Choulant-Frank pp. 252-3; Russell 213. ◆Vellum on spine rather worn with three one-and-one-half-inch pieces broken away revealing structure underneath paper boards quite chafed other minor problems externally but an entirely solid unrestored binding. A couple of plates with short closed marginal tears one folding plate with one-inch closed tear into image no loss untrimmed edges a little browned and brittle with isolated small chips occasional minor foxing or insignificant stains three plates lightly browned but still AN UNUSUALLY ATTRACTIVE COPY INTERNALLY with the broadest of margins with especially clean and fresh leaves and with rich impressions of the plates.<br/> <br/> With plates of notable visual impressiveness this was the finest anatomy book in England during the first half of the 18th century; it also was largely a plagiarism borrowing most of its engraved content from a work by the Dutch physician Govert Bidloo published in 1685. Bidloo's work was the first large-scale anatomical atlas to appear after Vesalius' epoch-making "De Humani Corporis Fabrica" and the plates which are highly praised by Norman and Garrison-Morton are characterized by startlingly detailed life-size depictions of the human body both adult and infant with figures flayed to reveal muscles opened to show organs and unfleshed to exhibit bones. According to Choulant-Frank Bidloo's publishers sold 300 impressions of these plates to Cowper probably to recoup some of their money after disappointing sales. Cowper took Bidloo's original 105 plates added nine of his own and produced an English translation of the original Latin text to accompany them. Discussing the original plates produced by Gerard de Lairesse 1641-1711 Norman says that the figures are displayed "in an emotional almost tender manner contrasting the raw dissected parts with the full soft surfaces of uncut flesh placing flayed bound figures in ordinary nightclothes or bedding setting ordinary household objects such as books jars or cabinets in the same scene as cut-up torsos or limbs. His illustrations brought the qualities of Dutch still-life painting into anatomical illustration and gave a new darker spiritual expression to the significance of the act of dissection." When Cowper's version of the atlas first appeared as "The Anatomy of Humane Bodies" in London in 1698 there was also a 1737 Leyden printing in English before our more scholarly Latin edition Bidloo complained to the Royal Society and accused Cowper of plagiarism and fraud resulting in much acrimony and heated pamphleteering between the two physicians. Notwithstanding this scandal Cowper's achievements and discoveries--including the pair of glands that bear his name--were considerable and his text improved significantly upon the original work. Unfortunately as the DNB notes "the notoriety of this case has served to obscure a true appreciation of Cowper and of his many original contributions to anatomical illustration." The atlases of Bidloo and Cowper appear on the market regularly but at 540 x 380 mm. the present copy is distinguished by its size which is significantly larger than what is typically seen with this edition--we have not been able to trace a copy larger than ours from marketplace or institutional records.
