The Concept of Contraéis. Melanchthon and the Freedom of Contraéis. This article explores the significance of Melanchthon for the development of modern contract doctrine. In 1521 and 1525 Melanchthon regarded prívate settlements as the solé way for free and equal subjects to créate bínding law among them. Although his reasoning was the necessary fruit of his theology, he drew on Aristotle to enhance the persuasivenpss of his argumentation. The result was the quest for a general term for binding agreements. In order to prove Melanchthon's crucial role, the slow development towards a new "contract" law has to be ascertained with regard to the precursors in theology, philosophy, and law - both Román and Canon jurisprudence. The reception of Melanchthon demonstrates once again the original gap between the jurisprudence of Catholic and Protestant states
