THE CONTENTS AND STRUCTURE OF THE PALI CANON AND ITS COMMENTARIES
THE PALI CANON
References are to volume and page number, eg. Vin III 59. Note that:
-Vin I and II (Mahâvagga and Cûlavagga) are translated
as The Book of the Discipline vols IV and V.
-Vin III, IV (Suttavibha.nga) are translated as The Book
of the Discipline vols I, II and III.
Also note that the translation, when it gives the Pali page number
in the midst of the translation, gives it at the end of that page: eg [1]
means p.1 ends here. In all other translations, it indicates where
a page of the original starts.
OVERVIEW OF LENGTH OF CANONICAL TEXTS
The only sub-commentaries published so far are the Lînattha-pakâsinî,
on the Dîgha Nikâya, part of the A.nguttara-nikâya-.tkâ,
and the Abhidhammatthavibhâvinî-.tîkâ (Abhi-s-mh-.t
: on this, see entry on Later Pali Literature below). There are no English
translations of these.
