W artykule przedstawiany jest rozwój nauki historii prawa jako przedmiotu nauczanego na angielskich i walijskich wydziałach prawa. Wskazuje się w nim ogólnie na przemiany edukacji uniwersyteckiej, a w szczególności na zmiany zachodzące w zakresie nauki prawa, a także na to, jak te zmiany wpływają na poszczególne przedmioty studiów. Opierając się na badaniach empirycznych oraz osobistych przemyśleniach związanych z własnymi doświadczeniami, artykuł kończy się przedstawieniem przypuszczeń dotyczących możliwych konsekwencji, tak pozytywnych jak i negatywnych, które mogą ujawnić się, gdy uniwersytety w Anglii i Walii wydobędą się z niepewności okresu pandemii COVID-19, w trakcie której artykuł został napisany.

This article explores the development of the study of legal history as a subject in the law schools of England and Wales. It outlines changes in university education more generally, and in legal scholarship in particular and how those changes impact the particular subject under study. Drawing on empirical studies and personal reflections relating to past experience it concludes by speculating on potential different outcomes, both positive and negative, which may emerge when the universities of England and Wales emerge from the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, during which the piece was written.
