术语“写状”的详细信息

英译术语:

to write an indictment

汉语语境:

讼师的行为用简简单单的“教唆词讼、拨弄事非”等词语描述，是太过笼统的。事实上，他们的主要业务是代写书状，这些书状包括遗嘱、各种契约、呈状以及工商行政方面的申请外，更多的是谋写诉状。历代讼师秘本总结记录了很多谋写诉状的秘诀，如“初作状词要诀”、“诉讼要诀”、“状词主冒语四要诀”、“状词十段锦”、“字词灵感”等等。除了谋写书状，讼师的业务行为还有咨询和谋划讼事、贿役通吏、把持捏造、教习讼学、调解和宣传、同代书交涉等。

英语语境:

The oversimplified accusations of “instigation in law suits” and “fomentation of dissention” imposed on legal pettifoggers fall far short of epitomizing their activities. In effect, their task mainly includes writing an indictment for clients, ranging from wills to compacts, from appeals to financial applications, and from plaints to indictments. The ancient treasured private books on legal pettifogger system (Song Shi Mi Ben) have recorded and summarized a good number of secret keys to and didactic rules for writing effective plaints and indictments. For instance, Keys and Rules for beginners in Plaints and Indictments Writing (Chu Zuo Zhuang Ci Yao Jue), Principles of Writing legal instruments (Su Song Yao Jue), Rules for Subjects and transitional words (Zhuang Ci Zhu Mao Yu Yao Jue), Legal Intruments Plus epigrams (Zhuang Ci Shi Duan Jin), and Inspiration in Dictions” (Zi Ci Ling Gan), etc. Apart from the above-mentioned tasks, legal pettifoggers took active part not only in legal consultation, education, coordination, publication, but also in planning, bribing, withholding and evidence, and contacting the plaint and indictment sub-writers, etc.
