摘要
根据认知语言学、家族相似性原理,刑法范畴不是特征范畴,而是以典型原型为核心事实所建立起来的原型范畴。所以,刑法范畴都有明确的核心和不明确的边缘,无法用共同的语义特征来描述内部所有成员。在进行刑法解释、考察差的样本是否归属于某刑法范畴时,必须将该样本和典型原型进行实质性的对比,根据其相似度确定其是否属于该范畴。在该过程中立法原意、刑法的字面意义均提供不了帮助,而只能留给法官行使自由裁量,由法官根据具体语境并结合自己的前见对文本进行客观解释、实质解释。
Based on theories of cognitive linguistics and the principles of family resemblance of lingnistic philosophy, the category of criminal law does not fall into the featured category , but prototype one with explicit core and uncertain border, established around the typical prototype, whose members cannot be described by the identical semantic features. While reviewing whether a poor sample belongs to a criminal law category, the only way is to compare the sample to the typical prototype of the category substantially and ensure whether it is in the scope according to how much the similarities, during which both the original legislative intention and the literal meaning of the criminal law text are of no help. Only by means of the judge's prior knowledge and the concrete context can he give an objective and fundamental interpretation of the text.
