한국한자음에 관한 칼그렌 가설의 문제점

Abstract

Karlgren (1926, 1940) proposed a hypothesis that the Go-on system of Sino-Japanese was transmitted directly from Eastern and Southeastern China in the sixth and seventh centuries while Kan-on was transmitted from Northen China through the Korean people a century later. This article, however, points out problems of Karlgren's ideas on the basis of historical studies and attempts to prove that Go-on was transmitted by the Paekche Koreans whereas Kan-on was transmitted directly from China at a later period. This article presents some pieces of linguistic evidence from Sino-Peakche Korean to support this claim.
