【内容提要】廷尉是汉代掌管刑狱的最高职官。其主要职掌有决狱,包括行政和军政系统中二千石以上的官吏,宗室犯罪,及谋反等重罪;部分法令的制订;决天下疑狱等。但在皇权至上的政治格局下,廷尉的权力受到其他职官的制衡。作为司法官员,廷尉需要具备一定的专业法律素质,西汉武帝之后,这一职官也要有相应的经学修养,这同汉代政治文化背景的变迁有着密切关系。另外,廷尉还以众多的僚属为支撑,使其能正常行使职能。

Making some laws and conducting disputed case in the empire is also his duty. Under the political pattern of imperial power being the highest, tingwei's power is restricted by other officers. As a judicial officer, tingwei should understand the laws. After Empiror Hanwudi, knowing some Confucianism classics is also essential for tingwei, which is connected with the change of politics and culture of the Han dynasty. Tingwei exercises authority depending on his staff.
