Paul Anthony Brand, FBA, FRHistS (born 25 December 1946) is a British legal historian. He was Professor of Legal History at the University of Oxford from 2010 to 2014 and a senior research fellow at All Souls College, Oxford, from 1999 to 2014.
Born on 25 December 1946, Brand attended Hampton Grammar School from 1957 to 1964, when he went up to Magdalen College, Oxford (graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1967). While completing his doctorate at Magdalen (awarded in 1974 for his thesis "The contribution of the period of baronial reform (1258–1267) to the development of the common law in England"), Brand worked as an assistant keeper at the Public Record Office from 1970 to 1976, when he took up a lectureship at University College Dublin. He left UCD in 1983 and carried out research for ten years before joining the Institute of Historical Research (IHR) as a research fellow in 1993. In 1997, he was elected to a two-year fellowship at All Souls College, Oxford, and in 1999 became a senior research fellow there (leaving his post at the IHR). He was also Professor of English Legal History at the University of Oxford from 2010 to 2014, when he retired (remaining at All Souls as an emeritus fellow).[1][2][3][4]
