Studies in the Language of Zu-tang ji 祖堂集
by Christoph Anderl
2 volumes. Oslo, Unipub, 2004, (ca. 980 pages)

This is study of the grammar of Late Middle Chinese / Early Vernacular Chinese, exemplified by the 10th century Chan text Zǔtáng jí 祖堂集 [Collection From the Patriarchs' Hall]. The first volume includes a long introduction to the text, and the grammar. The second volume includes selective translations, the bibliography, and an index.

Compiled in 952 in the kingdom of Southern Tang (937–975), Zu tang ji 祖 堂集 is an invaluable source of information about the formative history of the Chan school and the gradual evolution of Chan literature. Long lost and forgotten in China, only to be rediscovered during the early part of the twentieth century among the woodblocks of the Buddhist canon stored at Haein Monastery 海印寺 in Korea, the text represents an outline of earlier Chan “history,” written from a regional perspective. Among the text's prominent features is its inclusion of unique materials not found in other Chan collections.
