摘要
言词证据指证人的证言和当事人的陈述,在事实认定中起着重要作用。以语言学的理论和方法解决法律领域中有关语言的问题,是法律语言学的最终目标。本文以法律电影《十二怒汉》为例,从心智哲学的角度探索言词证据与案件事实之间的关系。在三个世界的表征关系中,庭审中的事实认定本质上是从语言世界到物理世界的反推,言词证据是这一过程的起点。言词证据的拓扑性质有助于厘清案件的基本事实和争议。基于"言词证据的意识双重结构",意向性分析可以为辨明争议提供一种易于确定的思维框架。
Testimonial evidence refers to the testimonies delivered by witnesses and the statements made by litigants in a court of law. It plays a crucial role in fact finding. The ultimate goal of forensic linguistics is to solve legal problems related to language by means of linguistic theory and methodology. This study explores the relationship between testimonial evidence and facts from the perspective of philosophy of mind and gives an exemplary analysis of the testimonial evidence in the movie 12 Angry Men. In the relationship of representation among the three worlds,fact finding in a court of law is essentially a process of retrieving the physical world from the linguistic world with testimonial evidence as the starting point. The topological nature of testimonial evidence helps to clarify the basic facts as well as the disputes. According to the doublet structure of consciousness for testimonial evidence, intentionality analysis can be applied to ascertain the judgment on disputes.
