Linguocognitive Modeling of Defensive Speech in Modern Legal Proceedings
УДК 811.161.1'42, ББК 81.055.1
Abstract
Cognitive structures which determine text unfolding and its interpretation, as well as efficiency of communication in general, can be reconstructed through systematizing and conceptual analysis of language units employed by trial lawyers. This hypothesis has been confirmed by the research dealing with language processes of developing texts of defensive speeches in current Russian proceedings.
The purpose of the article is to characterize the strategies of linguocognitive modeling of defensive speech and their linguistic representations. As research material the author uses the defensive speeches of modern court speakers of the end of the XX and the first quarter of the XXI century. The peculiarities of defensive speech composition have been revealed through the technique of studying interactive communication of trial participants, special attention given to strategic application of professional discourse. The main characteristics of the text of the defense speech are multi-vector dialogization, that is, the simultaneous orientation of speech to two different addressees – the court and the prosecution, and intertextuality as a dialogic interaction with various legal texts. The structure and peculiarities of unfolding of a text of defensive speech are determined by several situation models. It is established that linguocognitive modeling of defensive speech is carried out on the basis of cognitive stereotypes of legal discourse and at the same time obeys individual pragmatic goals. The results obtained can be used in text theory, as well as in teaching the academic disciplines “Judicial eloquence” and “Oratory” to students and undergraduates of law faculties of universities.
