庭审冲突的语言分析及对法官驾驭庭审的启示

Linguistic Analysis of Trial Conflict and Its Implications for Judges

本文从语言的功能分析出发,对“法官如何提高驾驭庭审技能”进行探讨。首先,文章运用功能语法关于语言元功能的理论分析了诉讼双方对诉讼案件的事实陈述在概念功能、人际意义、语篇功能上的对立焦点,然后,通过分析庭审对抗的实质探讨了庭审冲突的语言分析对于法官主持庭审的启示。

This paper aims to propose a feasible solution, from the perspective of linguistic analysis, to the issue of how to improve trial skills of judges, as a complement to others. It first analyses the conflict of the two opposing statements on facts-construction in terms of conceptual, interpersonal and textual functions under the framework of Hallidayan metafunctions of language. Then, an illustration of the indexical natures of these conflicts leads to a tentative discussion of the implications of this study to the trial judges.
