AbstractThis study examines the creation, transmission and reception of commentaries on the Vimalakīrti-sūtra (Weimojie suoshuo jing 維摩詰所説經) in the Tiantai tradition. Zhiyi 智顗 (538–598) in his later years was responsible for penning a commentary at the request of Yang Guang 楊廣 (569–618), the future Emperor Yang 煬帝 (r. 604–618) of the Sui dynasty (581–618). Guanding 灌頂 (561–632) later attached more material. Further textual developments occurred after this point. The body of texts within Tiantai that comprise these commentaries has a complex history of transmission that extends across several centuries and countries. The history behind the loss and recovery of critical texts requires detailed study. The present study builds upon the earlier work published by Satō Tetsuei 佐藤哲英 (1902–1984) and further illustrates the multiple instances of recovery, editing and recompilation of the commentaries, a situation that extended to Japan, where Tiantai literature from the Tang period, which had otherwise been lost on the mainland, was preserved.
