Summary/Abstract: Roman jurists had always included the loan contract among the real contracts. This is the result of a progressive refinement process started with the ‘birth’of the loan within the category of the 're obligari'. Through a riper consideration developed among the jurists, the old 're obligari' has been included in a more recent notion of 'contrahere re', where the role of the consent is definitely more relevant. A tension between the elements of the consent and delivery has been kept within the view of Roman jurists on this contract: Roman jurists had, on the one hand, vigorously defended the view of the loan as a real contract, on the other hand, had elaborated dogmatic models of loan contracts for which the delivery (traditio) was not anymore necessary for the production of the (obligatory) effects of the loan contract.
