禅籍方俗词三题

加世纪上半叶，学界学者们主要采用思想史、史学、文献学方法，结合中国考据方法研究禅宗。20世纪下半叶，尤其是60—80年代，中国学界的佛学研究，基本上都采用辩证唯物主义、历史唯物主义为指导的哲学、史学方法。禅宗典籍的原始资料都是由古汉语构成的，虽然有若干自身创造的名词，但多数是借用传统的古语。如唐宋禅宗语录是当时口语化程度最高的文献之一，其中保留了大量方俗词。因此，方俗词研究方法是研究禅籍之中不可或缺的方法之一。

Three Questions about Dialectic Words in Buddhist Records

In the first half of 20th century, scholars in Buddhism studied the Chan sect together with Chinese way of textual research by using intellectual history, historical science and philosophy. In the latter half of the century, especially during 1960S to 1980s, dialectical materialism and historical materialism were mainly used as guiding philosophical and historical methods in China＇ s Buddhist circle. The records and books of Chan sect are written in ancient Chinese, in which though there are some cre- ated nouns, most of them are ancient Chinese. For example, Chan sect recoids in Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty are one of the literatures that are most colloquialized, maintaining many dialectic words. Accordingly, the research of dialectic words is an in- dispensible method in studying Buddhist records.
