http://www.vallensplace.com/mythology/japan/goddesses.html

Extractions: Izanami : In Japanese Shinto-mythology, a primordial goddess and personification of the Earth and darkness. Izanami ("the female who invites") is the wife and sister of Izanagi. Together they created Onogoro, the first island of the Japanese archipelago. She died gaving birth to the fire god Kagutsuchi and since then she rules over the underworld. Her husband went there to take her back with him, but she refused. By sealing the entrance to the underworld she tried to imprison him, but Izanagi managed to escape. Furious, Izanami vowed to kill one thousand of Izanagi's subjects a day, and Izanagi vowed to create fifteen hundred new ones a day. Amaterasu : The Japanese Shinto sun goddess, ruler of the Plain of Heaven, whose name means 'shining heaven' or 'she who shines in the heavens'. She is the central figure in the Shinto pantheon and the Japanese Imperial family claims descent from her 1. She is the eldest daughter of Izanagi. She was so bright and radiant that her parents sent her up the Celestial Ladder to heaven, where she has ruled ever since. When her brother, the storm-god Susanowo, ravaged the earth she retreated to a cave because he was so noisy. She closed the cave with a large boulder. Her disappearance deprived the world of light and life. Demons ruled the earth. The other gods used everything in their power to lure her out, but to no avail. Finally it was Uzume who succeeded. The laughter of the gods when they watched her comical and obscene dances aroused Amaterasu's curiosity. When she emerged from her cave a streak of light escaped (a streak nowadays people call dawn). The goddess then saw her own brilliant reflection in a mirror which Uzume had hung in a nearby tree. When she drew closer for a better look, the gods grabbed her and pulled her out of the cave. She returned to the sky, and brought light back into the world.

http://www.aad.berkeley.edu/uga/osl/mcnair/94BerkeleyMcNairJournal/07_Yoo.html

Extractions: Faculty Mentor: Professor Mack Horton The present and future are constantly revealed through the past. A country's early chronicles provide an essential means for understanding its history, culture, genealogy, social structure, mythology, language and literature. With that in mind, this paper focuses on the relationship between Japanese and Korean mythologies as a means of understanding the links between these two societies and cultures. Despite the fact that Korea and Japan both have many myths which share similar motifs and beliefs, little in-depth work has yet been done on the comparative mythology of Japan and Korea. Japanese scholars have done most of the work in this area and they have primarily focused on the relationship between these two mythologies in terms of ceremonial and religious theory. For example, Professors Obayashi Taryo and Yoshida Atsuhiko of Japan have applied the important theory of "the tripartite system" to Japanese myths, following Dumzil's system of comparative mythology. There are, however, still more comparative studies that need to be done on the mythologies of these two countries. While there are other works of perhaps greater literary interest, I have chosen to study two early works of Japanese mythistory, Kojiki and Nihon shoki , and two from Korea, Samguk yusa and Samguk sagi . Given the reasons for which they were written and the time during which they were written, I think these national histories are the most important for understanding early Japan and Korea. Of the many possible connections to explore between these two nations' mythologies, I will focus on 1) the origins of kingship, 2) the use of animal imagery in the foundation legends of both countries, and 3) the role played by shamanistic ritual. By carefully studying and comparing these aspectsÑthe patterns in both countries' foundation myths and the presence of shamanistic elements in Korean culture and in Japanese mythÑthe deep historical connection between these two cultures becomes clear, even if it remains unknown how each influenced the other.
