| 摘要 | It is widely supposed that Tibetan Buddhism was first propagated among the Mongols during the late 13th century, at which time works of Buddhist scripture were translated into Mongolian, only to be lost later on, meaning that most extant Mongolian versions of Buddhist scripture are Modern productions, whether in print or manuscript form. Even though their originals are of Middle origin, they have undergone revisions and Modernizations since the so-called "second introduction" of Tibetan Buddhism beginning in the latter half of the 16th century. However, doubts have arisen about such suppositions based on careful line-by-line investigation and analysis of the Mongolian texts produced from the late 16th century on. This new research has revealed the presence of archaic linguistic forms, many of which were completely obsolete at the time of production and were thus probably incomprehensible to contemporary readers. This is the reason why Mongolian Buddhist works are of great value from the viewpoint of Mongolian historical linguistics, since they make up for the dearth of linguistic materials related to Middle Mongolian compared to similar sources regarding Modern Mongolian. In addition, many errors can be detected, sometimes so careless as to doubt any proficiency in Tibetan on the part of the translator. And this is also true of the originals in Middle Mongolian. Such facts allow us to infer that the revisions and Modernizations of the Middle period originals were hastily and half-heartedly performed, and lead to doubts about the authenticity of the colophons attached to the Modern versions, in which the names of historical figures are mentioned. The present article not only goes into more detail concerning the above discoveries, but also offers hypotheses related to the translation, compilation and transmission processes of Mongolian Buddhist works. |
