Synopsis

The Kojiki, also known as "Records of Ancient Matters," is a fundamental Japanese text that dates back to the early 8th century (711-712 AD). It is the oldest extant chronicle in Japan and serves as a compilation of myths, legends, and historical accounts of the origin of the Japanese archipelago, its deities, and the imperial lineage. Basil Hall Chamberlain (1850-1935) was a British scholar and Japanologist who made significant contributions to the study of Japanese language, culture, and history. He translated the Kojiki into English, allowing a broader audience to access and understand the ancient Japanese myths and traditions.
