本文從語言學的現代性檢討聲韻學的研究傳統。文中指出，以 Morris Halle 為代表的音韻研究，凸顯了「結構」與「生成」兩項現代語言學的基礎性特點。但是這兩項特點在中國聲韻學的傳統中，卻不乏先例。戴震、黃侃、李方桂都曾預示了這兩項現代性的觀念，並因此超越了各自所處的當代。重新審視他們的成就與洞見，對於聲韻學未來的發展方向，我們應可獲得新的啟發。

　　It is pointed out in this paper that the concepts of structure and generativeness, which characterize the modernity of Western linguistics, may be also found in the traditions of Chinese phonological studies. In their works on ancient phonology, for example, Dai Zhen 戴震, Huang Kan 黃侃, and Fang-kuei Li 李方桂 presumed the same ideas of structure and generativeness decades or centuries ago. Their insights, which are the most valuable legacy of Chinese phonology, not only went beyond their temporaries, but also shed light on the future development of phonological studies.
