開運寺本 晉本 「華嚴經」 卷33의 書誌的 硏究

Abstract

This paper studied the Volume 33 of Jin version Avatamska Sutra kept in Gaewun-sa Temple from bibliographic viewpoint and found out following facts. The bibliographic characteristics of Gaewun-sa edition Jin version Avatamska Sutra Volume 33 are as following. The binding is in scroll form and it consists of 19 chapters. Each chapter has 26 lines, except the book-beginning writing and the page with book-ending writing. This is different from the Goryeo editions, which have 24 lines. The Gaewun-sa Edition book-beginning writing has the sutra titles and chapter titles in the same line. Goryeo editions published after 10th century do not have this kind of format. The characters in Gaewun-sa Edition are in manuscript style in general. Nine characters, that had changed into square style in later age, had been chosen from the Gaewun-sa Edition and they had been compared with the characters in the Dunhuang manuscript. The result suggested that they are same with the manuscripts published in the ages of Shilla, Sui and Tang. The content of Gaewun-sa Edition sutra had been examined. It showed substantial difference from the Zhonghua edition Tripitaka. However, there was no significant difference from the Goryeo Second-engraving editions, which had accommodated the temple-published editions, and the Daisho New Edition Tripitaka, which had been compiled based on the Goryeo Second-engraving editions. Therefore, it is believed that Gaewun-sa Edition is in the same series with Goryeo Second-engraving editions and the Daisho New Edition Tripitaka. Based on above results, it is believed that the Gaewun-sa Edition had been published in Korea during 9th to 10th century. It is possibility to assume that Gaewun-sa Edition is the earliest edition among the 17-character temple-published editions, which became the original of Goryeo Second-engraving editions later.
