SHINTO

The Kojiki

The Record of Ancient Matters, 712 CE: the oldest surviving Japanese chronicle of the kami and the imperial line.

The Kojiki runs to 180 sections, 397 passages. The whole of it is held here and free to read, searchable by reference or by the words in it.

The edition held here is Chamberlain (1882) (1882), in English, in the public domain, from Wikisource.

It sits on the estate's shelf of 106 sacred works, beside the complete Douay-Rheims Bible, an atlas of the places named in scripture, a timeline and a genealogy.
