唐五代北京地区的诗文韵部研究小议

Review of the Studies on the Rhymes of Poetry in Beijing Area of Tang Dynasty and Wudai Period

唐五代时期没有流传下今北京地区方言音系的著作,有学者试图将诗文用韵作为反映当时方音的材料。依据已有研究成果,我们将"北京地区"和其他地区诗文用韵的分部进行了比较,认为唐五代时期出现在今北京地区范围的诗文用韵与同时期其他地区的用韵情况一致,难以看出幽燕方言语音的特征,即不能反映真正的方音面貌。这也证明了以往学者提出的观点:历代诗文押韵基本上反映各自时代的汉语共同语的语音格局,真正具有方音特征的诗文作品很少。

Some scholars intended to take the rhymes in poetry of Tang Dynasty and Wudai period as the reference of the pronunciation of Beijing local dialect since there were no books revealing the nature of pronunciation in Beijing dialect left of that time.The author of this paper has compared the poetry rhymes of Beijing area and other areas and found out that the rhymes in poetry of Wudai period in Beijing area were no difference with other areas of that time and it could not reflect the features of Beijing dialect.The paper agrees with the conventional idea that there were very few poems reflecting the true natures of the local dialects in different period of times of history instead of revealing the common nature of the pronunciation in Chinese language of respective times.
