五代北宋吴越国刻本《宝箧印陀罗尼经》再探

New Perspectives on the Block-Printed Edition of Baoqieyin Dharani Sutra of the Five Dynasties

五代吴越国王钱(弘)俶曾于后周显德三年丙辰岁(956)、北宋乾德三年乙丑岁(965)和北宋开宝八年乙亥岁(975)三次雕印《宝箧印陀罗尼经》,置于铜、铁阿育王塔和雷峰塔塔砖内供养。关于五代北宋吴越国刻本《宝箧印陀罗尼经》已有不少研究,本文就前人未曾深入论及的安徽无为出土“丙辰本”、三个版本的变相图演变、民国间翻刻本等问题再做探讨。

Wuyue Emperor Qian(Hong) Chu of the Five Dynasties ordered the printing of the Baoqieyin Dharani Sutra from engraved wood blocks thrice,respectively in the Bingchen(third) year of Later Zhou Xiande period(956), the Yichou(third) year of Qiande period(965)in the Northern Song Dynasty and in the Yihai(eighth) year of Kaibao period(975) in the Northern Song Dynasty.The works were enshrined in the copper,iron Ashoka Pagodas and Leifeng Pagoda.There have been many studies on the Baoqieyin Dharani Sutra,but this paper digs into the rarely discussed Bingchen version unearthed from Wuwei,Anhui Province,the evolution seen in Bianxiangtu(Buddhist stories in pictures) of the three versions as well as the reproduced editions from the period of the Republic of China.
