敦煌研究院藏佚本《維摩詰經注》寫卷再探 -- 兼及“子母注”問題=Further Research on Annotations on the Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra, a Dunhuang Manuscript kept at Dunhuang Academy Also on the Annotations of Parent-Child Relationships
The transcription of the long-lost Annotations on Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra,which is in Dunhuang Academy s collections,is a hand-written copy done in the Northern Dynasties.In the transcription,the Key words of the sutra were written in larger-sized Chinese characters followed by annotation in smaller-sized Chinese characters.The author made two main unprecedented discoveries through his study.First,the annotations were made by one person.It is not the parent-child annotation style or a variorum edition. Second, what is written on the back of the transcription also consists of annotations on the sutra and is complementary to what was written on the front side. These annotations can be called a complementary annotation of the Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra. The author regards both sides of the transcription of the Annotations on Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra as a whole. As an early copy of the annotation of Vimalakirti Nirdesa Sutra, it has high academic value.
