Description

Translation of Dhammapada Commentary

Tr. E.W. Burlingame, 1921, reprinted as 3 volumes 1990, 1995, 2009

This anonymous commentary is basically a collection of stories, of which about sixty are shared with the Jātaka Commentary, chosen to introduce, contextualise and explain the verses of the Dhammapada. It was apparently composed in Sri Lanka and its date is unknown.

Volume 3 contains the translation of Books 13 to 26.
