Abstract

The author briefly discusses some issues about interpretation arising from the preceding essays. In particular: the distinction between in abstracto and in concreto interpretation; the distinction between cognitive and adjudicative interpretation; the (twofold) frame of the admissible and, respectively, accepted interpretations; the peculiarities of the reasoning by which unexpressed norms are constructed by legal scholars (and judges).
