Fourth edition. Brazil enjoyed a remarkable period of rapid material progress and international importance under Emperors Pedro I and especially Pedro II who reigned from 1831 to 1891. The government enacted a law in 1823 calling for the gradual replacement of the Portuguese Ordenacoes with codes informed by the Enlightenment ideas of the eighteenth century and the work of Jeremy Bentham. A Projecto for commercial law was published in 1836 another in 1838. The code was enacted in 1850 and its first two editions were published in 1858 and 1869. The later editions 1878 1886 1896 are the best because they contain extensive commentary. All of these early editions are rare.

This survey fills a gap on the little studied architect. Among his many projects ont that is most emblematic is the Conjunto Nacional on Avenida Paulista in São Paulo. Other aspects in this study and basic to the understanding the work of Likeskind is this interest in art.

Outros aspectos abordados neste estudo considerados fundamentais para compreender a obra de Likeskind são o seu interesse pela arte atestada pela sua notável produção artística e a sua atividade como ilustrador gráfico durante as décadas de 1950 e 1960 Roman Guerra Editora; EDUSP unknown books
