从目前的研究看法律语言学学科体系的构建

摘 要

法律语言学的研究在国外已进入迅速发展的阶段,在我国则刚刚开始,在展开大规模的研究之前,有必要对该学科的总体框架进行充分的讨论。出于这样的考虑,本文论述法律语言学学科体系构建的有关问题。

学科体系的构建至少应该考虑研究对象、理论原则、研究内容和研究方法等方面。法律语言学既然已发展成独立的学科,其研究对象和语言学及法学的研究对象就有了很大的差别,研究的内容随之拓宽,具有很强的包容性,理论原则和研究方法除了从诸多学科吸取营养外,在逐渐形成自己的特点。

本文基于对目前研究状况的考察,根据学科建设的一般特点对法律语言学的研究对象、理论原则、研究内容和研究方法进行讨论和阐述,也提出一些看法。

The Construction of the Macrostructure of Forensic Linguistics

An Overview Based on Current Researches


Du Jinbang

Abstract

The turn of this very century witnesses the rapid development of forensic linguistic research abroad. In China, the research is just at the initial stage. Thus it is opportune to examine and unveil the macrostructure of the discipline before the advent of a great surge of full-scale explorations in the field in our country. In this regard, the present paper deals with the issues concerning the construction of the framework of forensic linguistics.

The construction of the macrostructure of a science consists of ascertaining components like object of study, content of study, principles and methodology. Forensic linguistics was born of linguistics and law, but as it has outgrown the crib and has become a relatively independent science, its object of study is no longer identical to those of linguistics or law. Its content becomes more comprehensive. Besides drawing on nutrition from a number of disciplines, it has been adopting its own form, assuming its own characteristics.

Among the components, the essential one is the object of study, as it usually orientate the whole research. The object of study of forensic linguistics is rooted in the interaction between language and law in social context. Therefore, it is concerned with what the interaction produces and what produces the interaction.

The principles of study encompasses numerous specific guidelines. In this paper, I bring into focus applicability, actuality, systematicness, comprehensiveness and authoritativeness, the consideration of which seems to be the most pressing task. The content of study is inclusive. The theoretically related fields such as philosophy, psychology, logic, rhetoric and branches of linguistics, and a number of others all have their share in forensic linguistics. As forensic linguistics is never pure science, it has a number of practical areas in which researches can be in full play. Among such areas, courtroom discourse study arises as the kernel. This is so because courtroom is the focus of law.

The methodology seems more tolerant. It is not overstated to say that all sciences borrow methods from each other. Forensic linguistics is no exception. It does not hesitate to borrow methods from other sciences, methods like comparison, analysis, synthesis, statistics, corpus-based analysis, and so forth.

As a new science, its theoretical framework has not become full-fledged. But with the above-mentioned components rationally defined, well developed and fully nurtured, this science can no doubt flourish.

Keywords: forensic linguistics, discipline, construction, power, courtroom interpretation

法律语言特点和法律翻译

摘 要

我国的法律语言学研究已经开始。作为法律语言学主要研究内容之一的法律翻译,包括口译和笔译,在国内、国际社会生活中将起日益重要的作用。法律翻译工作除了对译员及相关的条件提出较高的要求外,还受制于法律语言本身的特点。因此,根据法律翻译的基本要求分析法律语言特点对法律翻译的影响就成了一个重要的研究课题。法律翻译中与法律语言相关的问题的解决无疑会提高翻译的质量。本文以法律语言学的研究为基础,论述法律语言特点和法律翻译的关系。

Legal language has its uncertainty, whereas the judicial result must be clear and certain. There is thus the transition from uncertainty to certainty. What is the transition like? This is one of the important issues researchers of forensic linguistics should deal with. The present paper discusses the transition from uncertainty to certainty from the aspects of the relationship between accuracy and uncertainty, the causes of uncertainty, the removal of uncertainty and the characteristics of courtroom language.

Keywords: accuracy uncertainty certainty legal language

立法语言的限定语与言外行为

摘 要

限定语在立法文本中有着举足轻重的作用。法律规范的建立要靠限定语实现,没有限定语,法律条文的内容就会失之笼统、空泛,无法实施。限定语的重要作用已受到研究者的重视,但深入的专题研究并不多见,因此是法律语言学目前亟待探讨的课题。

本文出于这样的考虑分析限定语的类型、功能、句法意义以及限定语所表现的言语行为。首先阐述立法语言与言语行为的关系,进而提出限定语的定义,列举不同种类的限定语,然后阐述各种限定语的作用以及它们所表达的言外行为。

Qualification and Illocutionary Act in Legislative Discourses

Qualifiers play an indispensable role in legislative discourses. The legal norms set up by lawmakers and legal writers can be applied only when there are adequate qualifiers, without which the norms would be too general and even empty, thus impossible to be applied.

The important function of qualifiers has been noticed by more and more forensic linguists. However, insightful and intensive researches are still lacking. This makes the study of qualification of legal texts an important and urgent subject of study.

On the basis of the consideration, the present article sets about to analyze the types, functions, syntactic and semantic features of qualifiers, and illocutionary speech act concerned. First the relationship between legislative language and speech acts is formulated. Then an operational definition of qualifiers is given and various types of qualifiers are exemplified. And finally each type of qualification named and speech acts concerned are elaborated.

Keywords: legislative language, qualifier, illocutionary act

法律语言心理学研究评述

摘 要

随着法律语言学研究的深入和研究领域的扩展,法律语言心理研究日益得到重视,已经为法律语言心理学的产生奠定了基础。尽管法律语言心理学与心理语言学和法律心理学有着十分密切的联系,但是由于法律语言心理学毕竟同时涉及法学、心理学和心理语言学这三个学科的相关内容,具有更为复杂的因素,提出了更为丰富的研究任务,要求崭新的研究角度,因此是与心理语言学和法律心理学截然不同的学科,属于法律语言学领域内的分支领域。

本文从几个方面来论证法律语言心理学的特殊性、研究目标、研究现状、发展前景等基本的学科特点。首先提出法律语言心理学的定义,以便对该分支学科的研究方向做出概略的描述。然后对法律语言心理学与心理语言学的关系以及与法律心理学的关系做出简略的评论,以阐明法律语言心理学的学科定位,证明法律语言心理学的独特性及学科发展的必要性。

法律语言心理学由于法律语言研究和法律实践活动的迫切要求应运而生,因此本文在第二部分通过对重要研究课题的讨论,阐述法律语言心理学研究的用途。第三部分集中评述目前的研究状况,对现有研究队伍和条件做出评价,对一些典型研究课题进行个例分析,对目前的研究成果进行概括。第四部分对法律语言心理学研究的前景进行展望,讨论的内容包括理论建设、研究任务、研究的应用、研究队伍的发展等。

法律语言心理学尚处于初创时期,理论体系和方法论还未确立,本文的讨论主要基于作者有限的观察和理解。

Abstract

With the development of forensic linguistics, the research of language and psychology in the context of law has been valued by more and more researchers and it has laid solid foundations for forensic psycholinguistics as a scientific discipline. Although forensic psycholinguistics is akin to psycholinguistics and forensic psychology, because of its multiplicate relations with law, psychology and psycholinguistics and because of the complex factors it has, the copious research tasks it sets off and the new points of view it demands, it is a discipline totally different from the afore-mentioned.

The present paper, from a few aspects, tries to elucidate the distinguishing characteristics, research objectives, the status quo and the prospects of the discipline of forensic psycholinguistics. First the definition is given to allude to the orientation of the discipline. Then a brief comment is presented on its interrelations with psycholinguistics and forensic psychology in order to clarify the orientation and reveal its specialness and the necessity of its development.

As forensic psycholinguistics comes into being to meet the urgent need of forensic linguistic research and legal activities, the second part of the paper discusses the usefulness of the research of forensic psycholinguistics. The third part of the paper focuses on the status quo of the research with comments on the present conditions, typical research topics and the present research achievements. The fourth part gives a predictive view of the future concerning the construction of the theoretical framework, the research tasks, and the application of the researches.

Forensic psycholinguistics is now still in its embryonic stage, and the theories and methodology are far from fledged. Thus the present discussion is mainly based on the limited observance and understanding of the author.

Keywords: forensic psycholinguistics, forensic psychology, psycholinguistics, psychological process
