Abstract
The author surveys the work of German legal scholarship with the task of unification and modernization of all areas of private law. The author shows that the unique challenge of a difficult national situation was answered by an interdisciplinary expansion of legal science and that this expansion had fruitful implications not only for the legal development itself, but for the sciences as a whole and for the status and influence of German lawyers.
