Historiography is a growing area of research within the discipline of linguistics, but so far the subfield of clinical linguistics has received virtually no systematic attention. This article attempts to rectify this by tracing the development of the discipline from its pre-scientific days up to the present time. As part of this, I include the results of a survey of articles published in Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics between 1987 and 2008 which shows, for example, a consistent primary focus on phonetics and phonology at the expense of grammar, semantics and pragmatics. I also trace the gradual broadening of the discipline from its roots in structural linguistics to its current reciprocal relationship with speech and language pathology and a range of other academic disciplines. Finally, I consider the scope of clinical linguistic research in 2011 and assess how the discipline seems likely develop in the future.
历史编纂学是语言学学科中一个不断发展的研究领域，但到目前为止，临床语言学子领域几乎没有受到系统关注。本文试图通过追溯该学科从科学前时代到现在的发展历程来纠正这一情况。作为其中一部分，我纳入了一项对1987年至2008年间发表在《临床语言学与语音学》上的文章的调查结果，例如，该调查显示一直以来主要关注语音学和音系学，而忽视了语法、语义学和语用学。我还追溯了该学科从其结构语言学根源逐渐拓宽到目前与言语和语言病理学以及一系列其他学科的相互关系。最后，我考虑了2011年临床语言学研究的范围，并评估该学科未来可能的发展方向。
