>		Topic Statement: Narratives are the most common form of modern historiography. Although other forms of history exist, and were used on a regular basis in earlier times, they are rarely used anymore. For a number of reasons the narrative account is considered superior to those other, older styles, of historical expression. However, this transition in history from annals and chronicles to narratives seems to hold interesting parallels to the transition in law from the vast web of common law precedents to the organized – and very narrative-like – accounts of law in the Restatements.
