혜심(慧諶) 『 선문염송(禪門拈頌)』 의 글쓰기에 나타나는 주체 없는 주체

Abstract

In this paper, I looked at writing of Zen Story Commentary Song(禪門拈頌, 1226) edited by Hyesim(慧諶). I see that this book is a typical standard of oriental writing which is to describe but not to create(述而不作). There is no Hyesim’s creative writing throughout this book without introduction of it. Editing process of this book reveals Hyesim’s Buddhist perspective. This book has been described in order of Buddha Dharma Sanga. Sanga parts are overwhelmingly. In Buddha parts and Dharma parts, every chapters have lots of typical commentaries which are ones of masters overwhelmingly. It can be thought that the way of writing of this book is a kind of editing. But I think the order of editing contents of this book reveals the writer’s intention and his Buddhist perspective. The most important thing is a master who is explaining those, not the Buddha’s teaching or Buddha. Furthermore, important thing is a present interpreter oneself who interprets the master’s commentary song that interprets Buddha’s teaching. Without any writer’s writing, the writer Hyesim could reveal his intention. This style of writing is urging every time the post generation’s wisdom which be succeeding to previous generations’ wisdom. In every masters’ interpretations of this book, all readers be demanding their own interpretations newly every time. They can be called protagonists, who are borning newly every time whenever they read and interpret masters’ interpretations as commentary songs about Buddha’s teaching. I called them “subjectless subjects” newly.
