| Summary: | Generally acknowledged as a Southern Song text by an obscure Chan monk, the Xiaoshi Jingang keyi 銷釋金剛科儀 includes a chapter-by-chapter exposition of Kumārajīva's fifth-century Chinese translation of the Diamond Sūtra and survives in multiple different editions from the Ming-Qing era. It has claimed attention from scholars from different fields of Chinese religions and been considered in the context of the study of precious scroll (baojuan 寶卷) or Buddhist ritual literature. With due attention to different components of the whole text rather than the exposition alone, and by situating the work in the history of Chinese Buddhist commentarial and liturgical works on the Diamond Sūtra, this article examines the textual and reception history of the Xiaoshi Jingang keyi. Focusing on its overall structure, source material, and use of verses. I demonstrate that the Xiaoshi Jingang keyi finds roots in the pre-existing Chinese Buddhist literature on the Diamond Sūtra, and show how it inspired Buddhist monastics to compose commentaries on it up to the mid-sixteenth century. 摘要:, 一般被認為係南宋時期一位不知名禪僧所作的《銷釋金剛科儀》包含了對公元五世纪鳩摩羅什譯本《金剛經》經文的逐章闡釋，有多個明清時期的版本流傳。這部作品吸引了來自中國宗教研究多個領域學者的關注，並曾分別被置於寶卷和佛教儀式文本研究的視域下探討。本文通過全面考察《銷釋金剛科儀》的各個組成部分而非單單釋經的部分，以及將其放在與《金剛經》有關的漢文佛教註疏和儀式文本的發展脈絡當中，从文本史和接受史的角度對《銷釋金剛科儀》進行了研究。文章重點關注作品的整體結構、材料來源和當中偈頌的使用，指出《銷釋金剛科儀》和此前漢文佛教文獻中《金剛經》相關文本之間的源流，并略述明代中前期佛教僧人創作的多部《銷釋金剛科儀》注釋。 |
