Abstract

ABSTRACT This article aims to analyze how discourses of defendants accused of femicide in Jury Trial are axiologically constituted. Based on Dialogic Discourse Analysis (DDA), two murderers’ testimonies taken in the 2018-2020 triennium were analyzed. Considering the extralinguistic dimension of utterances, results point out that: a) in the Jury chronotope, defendants’ discourses present as defensive-victimistic-accusative; b) in the ideological legal sphere, their discourses are made hybrid as intimate-everyday, moral, and legal; c) in the specific situation of discursive interaction, discourse materializes as pro-formahierarchical-bivocal, while permeated by dialogical relations with the law. In the linguistic dimension, both stylistically and compositionally, murderers tensely express negative images of the women victims, describing them as traitors, deceitful, jealous, hysterical, provocative, maladjusted, and aggressive, among others. They build up images of themselves as victimized and disturbed men who had been provoked to act.

陪审团审判中杀害女性被告人话语的对话分析

摘要本文旨在分析陪审团审判中被指控杀害女性的被告人的话语是如何被价值构成的。基于对话话语分析（DDA），对2018-2020三年期两名杀人犯的证词进行了分析。考虑到话语的语言外维度，研究结果表明：（1）在陪审团时间表中，被告的话语表现为防御性的受害-宾格；b）在意识形态法律领域，他们的话语被混合为亲密的日常、道德和法律；c）在话语互动的特定情境中，话语表现为形式上的等级二元性，同时渗透着与法律的对话关系。在语言层面，无论是在风格上还是在构图上，凶手都紧张地表达了女性受害者的负面形象，将她们描述为叛徒、骗子、嫉妒、歇斯底里、挑衅、适应不良和好斗等。他们把自己塑造成被激怒而采取行动的受害者和不安的人。
