Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss the method by which it would be possible to deal with the cognition of the fact in the trial. Since there is any “fact” neither before nor in the trial, but only a “representation” of it, the problem is how to evaluate the persuasiveness of the parties' discourses which are rhetorical in nature and oriented towards a “building” of the fact as a narration.
