Ruy Barbosa
Ruy Barbosa , 1849-1923, Brazilian jurist, writer, and statesman. He was largely responsible for the republican constitution of Brazil and was the champion of law and liberty under recurrent dictatorships.

As a writer, Barbosa has been regarded as one of the greatest stylists in the Portuguese language.
