庭审事实重构的话语策略研究——评价理论视角

Discursive Strategies for Courtroom Fact Reconstruction—The Perspective of Appraisal Theory

摘要: 民事庭审中，庭审参与者在传递信息时，语言也隐含着鲜明的评价色彩。本文以评价理论的态度系统为框架，探讨庭审主体如何通过态度资源重构庭审事实。研究选取中国庭审公开网的民事庭审语料，利用UAM CorpusTool 6.2标注，从事件叙述、事件组织与事件评议三个方面探讨言语使用策略。研究发现，庭审参与者主要通过竞争性叙述、因果构建和后果放大策略重构案件事实，其中判断与鉴赏资源起核心作用。这些策略的使用有助于庭审主体更好地利用态度资源重构庭审事实以优化庭审交流、提高审理效率。

Abstract: In civil trial, while participants convey information, the language also carries distinct appraisal meanings. Drawing upon the Attitude System within Appraisal Theory, this study explores how court participants reconstruct trial facts through the strategic use of attitude resources. Utilizing corpora collected from the China Court Trial Online, the research employs UAM CorpusTool 6.2 for systematic annotation and reveals the strategies from three dimensions: event presentation, event organization, and event evaluation. The findings indicate that courtroom participants primarily reconstruct trial facts through three strategies: competing event presentation, causal structuring, and amplified consequence, in which Judgment and Appreciation resources play a pivotal role. Employing these strategies enables courtroom participants to better leverage attitudinal resources in fact reconstruction, thereby optimizing courtroom communication and enhancing judicial efficiency.
