Hotsuma Tsutae
The ''Hotsuma Tsutae'' (also ''Hotuma Tsutaye'', Japanese 秀真伝) is an elaborate epic poem of Japanese legendary history which differs substantially from the mainstream version as recorded in the ''Kojiki'' and the '' Nihon Shoki''. Its antiquity is undetermined. Although many proponents allege that the ''Hotsuma'' predates the mainstream mythology, the first known manuscript was dedicated to a shrine by Waniko Yasutoshi (also known as Yunoshin Ibo) in 1775. Some excerpts were published and translated into modern Japanese in 1884, a printing which was noted by Hirata Atsutane in his work on '' jindai moji'', a Japanese writing system developed prior to the use of Chinese characters, but which otherwise ignored the work. Atsutane's Kokugaku was principally concerned with the ''Kojiki'' and the ''Hotsuma Tsutae'' would have only muddled his theories. Yasutoshi's manuscript was almost lost, but was discovered and rescued in 1993 following the publication of some popular bo ...
