Juéàn 覺岸 (1286–after 1355), with sobriquet Bǎozhōu 寶洲, was a Tiāntái 天台 school monk of the late Yuán 元 / early Míng 明 active in Húzhōu 湖州. The preface to his major work, the Shìshì jīgǔ lüè 釋氏稽古略 (KR6r0014), is dated 1354 (Zhìzhèng Jiǎwǔ 至正甲午); the catalog meta records him as still active fl. 1534, but this is clearly a confusion — Jiǎwǔ of the Yuán Zhìzhèng era is 1354. The 1534 date in the catalog is presumably a misreading or a late-date variant. The work is dedicated to a brief year-by-year chronicle of Buddhist and secular history from antiquity to the early Yuán, in four juan, intended as a handbook complement to the longer universal Buddhist histories of 志磐 (KR6r0012) and 念常 (KR6r0013).
Juéàn was associated with monasteries in the Tàihú 太湖 region and is described in late-Yuán sources as well-read in both Buddhist and Confucian historiography. The Shìshì jīgǔ lüè was admitted to the Sìkù quánshū and is the principal vehicle for his name in later Chinese Buddhist historiography. No other significant works survive under his name.
