Abstract
The Treatise on the Mahāyāna Awakening of Faith, an indigenous Chinese composition written in the guise of an Indian Buddhist treatise, is one of the most influential texts in the history of East Asian Buddhism. In this paper, after a brief examination of some of the controversies surrounding its composition, I offer a translation into Italian of a key section of the text.
