Stage Structure of Kojiki Myth

The construction of Kojiki myth stage includes heaven, human world, underworld, immortal world and so on, which is roughly the same as the construction of Chinese myth stage. However, the name of each stage in Kojiki myth is of more diversity, and the passageways between the realms of Kojiki myth are more visualized. Netherworld is unique in Japanese myth. We can see that Kojiki myth world is influenced by the cosmology in Chinese Taoism. The stage strcture of Kojiki myth reflects the adoption and change in the Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges.
