Abstract
Dùnlín 遁麟 (also known as Fùchūn shāmén 富春沙門 “the monk from Fùchūn”; fl. mid-to-late 8th century CE) was a student of 圓暉 (圓暉) who composed this extensive sub-commentary covering nearly all 30 juan of 圓暉’s Sòng Shū. The Jì genre (jì 記, “notes”) represents a disciple’s explanatory record of a teacher’s commentary — a format central to the transmission of Chinese Buddhist scholasticism. At 29 juan, Dùnlín’s Jì is the most substantial surviving sub-commentary on 圓暉’s text and was particularly important for the transmission of the Sòng Shū tradition to Japan.
