I. はじめにII. 高麗時代十四世紀における仏教彫刻の作例とその特質III. 万徳山白蓮結社の成立と展開IV. 結びにかえてDuring the Koryo period (918-1392) Buddhism exerted tremendous influence on the lives of the Korean populace. A great number of temples were built and repaired throughout the Korean Peninsula. Many Buddhist images were also produced. Unfortunately few sculptures bear clearly decernable Koryo period dates. Among the extant dated examples, five sculptures of the fourteenth century (i.e. the gilt-bronze Avalokitesvara in Kannon-ji temple, a pair of gilt bronze Bodhisattva in the National Museum of Korea, the gilt bronze Bhaisajyaguru Buddha in Changgok-sa temple, the gilt bronze Amitabha in Munsu-sa temple and the wood Amitabha in Bongnim-sa temple) present problems of iconography and style. In the latter part of the thirteenth century, Mandeogsan Baegnyeon-gyeolssa sect was established in Chollanamdo Province, as an effort to attain the Pure Land through the study of the Lotus Sutra. Baegnyeon-gyeolssa extended its power as far as the capital at Gaegyeong. Faith in Amitabha spread to all classes and, thus many works of art related to Amitabha were created. The gentle and elegant style which characterizes fourteenth century Buddhist sculpture was carried out into the ensuing Choson Dynasty (1392-1910). In attempt to understand the foundation of fourteenth century medieval Korean sculpture I will analyse the relationship between Baegnyeon-gyeolssa and faith in Amitabha.
