在中国文学史、文化史上，佛教与文学结下了不解之缘，佛教人士投入文学创作亦不鲜见。元代僧人释圆至作为元代“三隐”中的第一隐，诗文双秀，独树一帜，其诗歌清新流畅、雅丽可诵；其散文清峻高远、笔力崭然，不仅在当时享有盛名，在后代亦受到很多人的推崇。本文主要运用考证与分析的方法，研究释圆至及其作品集《筠溪牧潜集》，钩沉史料，条分缕析。首先，考证释圆至的生平与交游情况，对他的时代背景、俗家家世、一生经历、佛门宗系、思想渊源、与不同人群的交往等一一进行阐述；接着，对历史上有关释圆至的错误说法一一进行辨析，如方回《天隐禅师文集序》中的错误等；最后，对《筠溪牧潜集》的版本源流进行整理，梳理版本发展历程，并对各本优劣作一个基本评价和定位。

In the history of Chinese literature and culture，Buddhism has formed a deep bond with literature, a number of monks flung themselves into literary creation. As the first of " the three hermits " in Yuan Dynasty，Shi Yuanzhi’s poetry is fresh and smooth，his prose is stern and has forceful momentum，which had good reputation at that time，and has also earned high marks afterwards. In this paper, we use the methods of textual research and analysis to study Shi Yuanzhi and his corpuses Yun Xi Mu Qian Ji. First, we seek for his life and friendship, set forth his times background, Family background, experiences, Buddhist faction, ideological sources ，his contacts with different groups of people and so on. Then,we differentiate and analyse those wrong discourses about Shi Yuanzhi one by one, such as the wrong discourse in The Preface for Collected Works of Tian Yin Chan Master (by Fang Hui) and so on. Finally, we inquire the origin and sequences of various editions of Yun Xi Mu Qian Ji, clarify the course of edition development, make basic evaluation on every edition.
