摘要

除了训诫文本和简短的启发性故事外，耆那教僧侣还用梵语、梵语或阿跋陀罗语写了一些文学叙事ṃśa，公元8世纪至12世纪。虽然他们的目标是在风格和情节上创作出像印度教kāvyas一样复杂的作品，但他们也包括从各种知识体系中借鉴的技术段落。其中之一是相学，研究人类的标记及其解释。在过去的十年里，K.Zysk从各种印度教和佛教来源研究了这一知识，并就印度相学的发展提出了几个假设。由于到目前为止，长期的耆那教中世纪叙事中包含的段落还没有被考虑在内，本文旨在探索这些来源在多大程度上可以进一步揭示这一知识体系的逐步建立及其在印度的传播渠道。

The Knowledge of Human Marks in Jain Medieval Narratives

Apart from exegetical texts and short edifying stories, Jain monks wrote several literary narratives in Sanskrit, Prakrit, or Apabhraṃśa, between the 8th and 12th centuries. While they aimed at creating works as sophisticated as Hindu kāvyas in their style and plot, they also included technical passages borrowed from various knowledge systems. One of them is the science of physiognomy, which deals with human marks and their interpretation. In the past decade, K. Zysk has studied this knowledge in various Hindu and Buddhist sources and proposed several hypotheses as regards the development of the science of physiognomy in India. Since passages included in the long Jain medieval narratives have not been taken into account so far, this paper aims at exploring to what extent these sources can throw further light on the gradual establishment of this knowledge system and on its channels of transmission in India.
