Geographical Description of Tiantai Mountain


Abstract

  • Tendaisan ki (Tiantaishanji in Chinese) is a geographical description of the Chinese holy mountain, Tendaisan (Tiantaishan in Chinese), located in Zheijiang Province. The author, Xu Lingfu, was a Taoist who lived in seclusion in order to discipline his mind and body. Xu lived on Tendaisan from 815 to 825, where he wrote this book. A Japanese monk studying in China may have copied the original in China or he may have brought a copy back to Japan, after which it was lost. This manuscript, held in the National Diet Library, is the only copy of this book and the only remaining geographical description from the Tang dynasty. The writer of the manuscript is unidentified. At the upper right of the title someone has added \"Written by Annen.\" Annen (circa 841−circa 915) was a great scholar of the Tendai sect of Buddhism in Japan. There is no evidence, however, that he made this copy. After the text of Tendaisan ki, that of Busso tōki taikan den (Fozu tongji diguan zhuan in Chinese) by Zhipan has been added in another hand. When the scholar Li Shuchang reprinted 26 Chinese rare books that are known to survive only in Japan (as the Guyi congshu series in the tenth year of the Guangxu period of the Qing dynasty, 1884), he included this book as one of the texts.(en)

    中国浙江省にある霊地天台山の地誌。この本は料紙、書風などから平安時代の写本と推定される。表紙中央に「天台山記」と墨書、その右肩に「安然書」と加筆。安然(841?−915?)は天台宗の碩学、本書が安然の筆になるものかは未詳。本文の次に「仏祖統紀諦観伝」が別筆で書写されている。本書の原本は中国では失われ、今日遺るのはこの本だけである。また、唐代の地誌としても伝存する唯一のものである。清の黎庶昌が光緒10年(1884)に日本伝存の中国の珍書26種を集めて刊行した『古逸叢書』所収本の原本。料紙は斐紙。粘葉装。大原三千院梶井円融房旧蔵。
