从敦煌吐鲁番写本看佛教信众与写经书法

Seeing Buddhist Believers and Scripture Calligraphy from Sutra Edition in Dunhuang and Turpan

敦煌藏经洞及新疆吐鲁番发现的数以万计的佛经写本,绝大部分出于四世纪至十一世纪之间的写经人之手。从有题记的写本来看,写经人的身份可以分为僧尼、信众和职业写经生三种。本文重点探讨佛教信众与写经的关系,分析不同时代、不同身份的信众写经的目的,并指出由于书写者身份的差异和书写地点的不同,在写经书法中呈现出的不同面貌。

Most of the thousands of Buddhist sutra found in Dunhuang's Grottoes of Buddhist Texts and Turpan in Xinjiang were from the hands of sutra copi-ers from 4th to 11th century.Seeing from the scrip-tures with notes,we know that the writers could be devided into three kinds:monks and nuns,believers and professional sutra copiers.This thesis underlines the relationship between the Buddhist believers and copying sutra,analyzes the aim of the believers in different times with different identity,and points out that because of the differences in the copiers' identities and places,the calligraphies they used look different.
