Abstract

The article aims to describe the framal connection between the concepts crime and punishment. The interconnection between them is clearly shown by the correspondence between frame elements. Their universal characteristics are reflected in frame elements. The situation of the concepts crime and punishment is complex which gives us the possibility of thorough research. Frame network compiled by Barkley gives us the illustration of the valency models through example sentences. The description of the prototypical situation of committing a crime singles out core and non-core elements of these concepts. The framal analysis of these concepts enables us to understand their immanent nature.
