"This book provides a comparative perspective on one of the most intriguing developments in law: the influence of basic rights and human rights in private law. It analyzes the application of basic rights and human rights which are traditionally understood as public law rights in private law and discusses the related spillover effects and changing perspectives in legal doctrine and practice. It provides examples where basic rights and human rights influence judicial reasoning and lead to changes of legislation in contract law tort law property law family law and copyright law. Providing both context and background analysis for any critical examination of the horizontal effect of fundamental rights in private law the book contributes to the current debate on an important issue that deserves the attention of legal practitioners scholars judges and others involved in the developments in a variety of the world’s jurisdictions.

18555'The Queen's Prison i.e. the Fleet Prison Jany. 1. 1843.'. 1p. 4to. In fair condition on aged and worn paper with slight damage to corners caused by removal from album. For the context of the letter see Oastler's entry in the Oxford DNB which explains that he was nearing the end of a three and a half year sentence at the Fleet Prison for 'debts accumulated during his stewardship at Fixby' the charge being a 'Pretext' his 'campaign against the new poor law' having proved 'incendiary'. The letter begins: 'Maria! This comes from thy own Papa to wish thee a Happy new Year. I have just been wishing the same blessing - to dear mama.' The letter continues with warm and devout best wishes Oastler addressing his daughter as 'my Pet'. It concludes poignantly: 'I blow thee a Kiss while I assure thee that thou are indeed dear to thy own Papa & that he delights in his own child.' A postscript reads: 'P.S. Papa lives well and is well. A Hamper came to day - full of good stuff - Ham Pheasant Rabbit Chicken & mince pie. A Friend & I dine together on - Chicken Ham Sippet Pudding & mince Pie. Few bette<r> dinners in London to day! R O'. The Oxford DNB states that Oastler only had two children Sarah and Robert both of whom died in 1819. 'The Queen's Prison [i.e. the Fleet Prison ] | Jany. 1. 1843.' unknown

1900178581900. Women at Work Albumen photo of women at work in a small factory. Photograph measures 7.75" x 5.5" inches and is on gray photographer's board measuring 8.5" x 6.5" inches. Circa 1900s. Albumen print. Women sitting at long wooden tables in small manufacturing shop. Palm-sized rings hang in loops from the ceiling and can be seen scattered throughout the photo. One woman in a long white dress holds length of material looking it over while another sitting behind her and across and wooden aisle looks away from the camera toward her desktop. Two other women can be seen seated behind her further back into the shop. A man in shirt and vest appears to be observing the women at work while another man at the back of the shop appears to be using some sort of pressing device. It's unclear what's being manufactured but the details of materials and workplace layout give rich details to take in. The women would have been part of a growing female workforce utilized to support production in the midst of industrialization. Overall very good condition. unknown
1920173461920. 1920s vintage sepia photograph of around 50 women at work in a textile factory. The photographer's board is 10" x 8" inches and image is 8.25" x 5" inches. The women are seated in long rows and armed with sewing machines and seem to be turning bundles of cloth into garments. Spools of thread hang down from a center rail in the middle of the table to be fed into the sewing machines. Some of the cloth appears to be polka-dotted similar to the dresses that several women pictured appear to be wearing. The factory is consisted almost entirely of women - there is one man in a waistcoat walking around accompanied by an older woman. The working women seem to be of varying ages from their early 20s into their 50s. Textile manufacturing was unique at the time for its overwhelmingly female labor force. Sepia toned very good condition with great detail. unknown
1871165651871. Women Employment Labor To the Right Honorable Richard Assheton Cross M.P. Secretary of Sate for the Home Department. 1871. 4 pages. 8 x 5 in. In this document women workers express fears regarding proposed labor regulations that would limit their ability to earn and would "restrict the paid labour of all women.or even make all married women half-timers." They claim it is unjust treatment that would harm women workers and pit their marriages at odds with their ability to work: "Your Memorialists assert that it is unjust to place restriction son the labour of unmarried women for the presumed protection of married women or mothers and further that any special restrictions upon the labour of married women is practically a penalty imposed on marriage as regards to the woman." Document that reveals the competing priorities for women factory workers between workplace safety and their earning power. Chipping with small losses along top and right edge. Repairs to two tears on page 2. Top left corner missing. Good only. unknown
