ã??Ktei Kojiki denã??is the second volume of Motoori Norinaga's extensive commentary on the Kojiki, Japan's oldest extant chronicle. Motoori Norinaga (1730-1801) was a prominent scholar of Kokugaku, a school of Japanese philology and philosophy that sought to restore native Japanese culture and thought by purging foreign influences, particularly those from China and Buddhism. His meticulous analysis of the Kojiki aimed to reveal the authentic spirit of ancient Japan.
This volume continues Motoori's detailed examination of the Kojiki's text, providing insights into its language, mythology, and historical significance. Motoori's work remains essential for understanding the Kojiki and the development of Japanese national identity.
