摘要
《太古元音》是一部在《直圖》基礎上,部分參考《横圖》編撰而成的等韻學稿本。該書既表現了對前期韻圖内容的承襲,又以現實語音爲基礎,試圖表現比較理想化的語音系統。爲調和韻圖音與現實語音的矛盾,《太古元音》創立了一系列的等韻理論。結合對韻圖分韻列字與等韻理論等相關内容的分析,論文歸納了《太古元音》所記録反映的實際語音系統,並對其音系特徵進行了討論。通過與現代常州方言的比較,指出《太古元音》所依據的實際語音就是18世紀初的常州方言文讀音,作者是奎試圖構建的“太古元音”是以常州方音爲基礎的。
Taigu Yuanyin is a dengyun book compiled on the basis of Zhitu(《直圖》)and partly referring to Hengtu(《横圖》).The rhyme tables not only show the inheritance of the content of the previous rhyme tables,but also tries to show a more ideal phonology based on the actual phonology.In order to reconcile the contradiction between the phonology of rhyme tables and actual phonology,a series of rhyme theories have been established in Taigu Yuanyin.Based on the analysis of the theory of the book,this paper sums up the actual phonology recorded in Taigu Yuanyin and discusses its phonological characteristics.By comparing with modern Changzhou dialect,we can find that the actual phonology of Taigu Yuanyin recorded the phonology of Changzhou dialect at the early 18th century.
