Question about myths - 01-29-2011, 05:08 PM

Guys, I really need some help, course I can`t find any good resourses, dedicated to japanese mythologi, fairy-tales, or something like that. That`s awful, as I really need this information. Most needed are the stories (or the mythc, ect) dedicated to Enra, Enma-o and Amaterasu.
Can someone help me? Anyone?
(pleasepleaseplease! )

Try Japanese mythology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It offers a basic understanding and some links....

You can always type those specific names into Wikipedia and get some info on them as well....

Utilizing library databases could help you find exactly what you may be looking for. However, if those resources aren't available for you to look up, you could try using "Google Scholar" to find some resources on educational/scholarly material.

Here's a link that might contain what you're looking for:

Hope it helps.

Thanks a lot
Actually, I read the basics, and wikipedia won`t help me much
I`ve got some books about an anciant pantheon (sinto), and the version about how the world had been created, but that`s all, and as I look, I can`t find more.

So sorry, my English might be awful
