“五灯”系列禅籍禅师收录异文类型

“Wu Deng”Series of Zen Books and Masters Variant Types

《五灯会元》被认为是集"五灯"之大成之作,经比照发现,其在删减篇幅的同时,造成了许多内容的遗漏。其中失收内容包含:某禅师全部内容、某禅师部分内容,广语、拈古、颂古、赞颂、偈诗等。将"五灯"系列禅录汇校,其大量的异文补充可使禅录文献资料更加完整、全面。

The traditional research on Zen quotation mainly focuses on ＂ Wu Deng Hui Yuan＂ and ＂Jingde Chuandeng Lu＂. And the attention about ＂ Wu Deng＂ series of Zen quotation is not much in the circulation or academic research since the Yuan and Ming Dynasty because the content of Zen quotation is more or less the same. By con- trast,＂ Wu Deng Hui Yuan＂ truncates the same chapter and causes omission of many contents, including the part of the contents , the wide language, twist, praise and so on. So, a large number of variants supplement can make Zen books more comprehensive.
