交流与碰撞——利玛窦视野下的中国法律

Contact and Confrontation——Chinese Legal System from the view of Matteo Ricci

审判动态地反映着司法权的全部固有属性并具体地实现着司法权的基本职能。裁判作为法律过程的产品,无非是法律从抽象形式到具体形式的转化,是在个案的落实。虽然在华经历了三次诉讼,但是,利玛窦对中国法律制度和政治制度的评价是正面的、赞扬性的。通过对中西法律的对比,利玛窦认为宗教对法律的影响是客观存在的。

Trial not only dynamically reflects the inherent attributes of judicature, but also specifically achieves its basic functions. As a product of the out-carrying of a law, a trial is the transformation of the law from its abstract form to its concrete form, is the realization of a specific-case-resolving. Through the compari- son of the Chinese law with European law, Matteo Ricci believed that it is true that religions may influence the development of law.
