The foundations for modern contract law were laid between 1670 and
1870. Rather than advancing a purely chronological account, this
examination of the development of contract law doctrine in England
during that time explores key themes in order to better understand
the drivers of legal change. These themes include the relationship
between lawyers and merchants, the role of equity, the place of
statute, and the part played by legal literature. Developments are
considered in the context of the legal system of the time and
through those who were involved in litigation as lawyers, judges,
jurors or litigants. It concludes that the way in which contract
law developed was complex. Legal change was often uneven and slow,
and some of the apparent changes had deep roots in the past.
Clashes between conservative and more reformist tendencies were not
uncommon.
