The Nihongi or Chronicles of Japan is a book written by Charles F. Horne that provides a comprehensive account of the early history of Japan. The book is a translation of the Nihon Shoki, a historical document that was compiled in the 8th century and covers the period from the creation of Japan to the reign of Empress Suiko in the 7th century. The Nihongi is divided into three parts: the first part deals with the creation of Japan and the reigns of the first emperors; the second part covers the reigns of the emperors from Emperor Ojin to Emperor Yuryaku; and the third part describes the reigns of the emperors from Emperor Seinei to Empress Suiko. The book provides a detailed account of the political, social, and religious developments in Japan during this period. It covers topics such as the introduction of Buddhism, the development of the imperial court, and the rise of the powerful clans. The Nihongi is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the early history of Japan. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Japanese history and culture.THIS 102 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East: Japan, by Charles F. Horne.
