    http://www.china-window.com/china_culture/literature/chinese-myths-and-fantasi-2
    
    Extractions: The history of the long period before recorded history began is partly based on legend, which is interwoven with mythology. Such ancient heroes and leaders as Fuxi, Shennong, Huangdi (the Yellow Emperor) and Yu are both historical figures according to legend and important characters in mythical stories. One typical example is the story of Gun and Yu trying to tame the floods. Gun steals the "growing earth" from the Heavenly God with which to stop the floods, but the god has him killed. Out of his belly Yu is born, who continues his cause. Yu goes through countless hardships, remains unmarried until he is thirty, and leaves his wife only four days after their wedding to fight the floods, and finally brings them under control. They praise rebellion against oppression.

In a narrow sense, the term is used for those beliefs that pre-date the rational thought of the age of the classical Chinese philosophers (5th to 3rd centuries bc ); in a wider sense, it is used to describe the panoply of folk customs and legends that were generated throughout Chinese history, and which still permeate Chinese society. In spite of a rich and varied mythology China is not renowned as one of the great myth-creating civilizations. In contrast to the highly developed mythology of ancient Greece ( see Greek Mythology ), ancient Chinese myths are fragmentary and laconic. This may partly be ascribed to the attitude of the scholars who maintained the written record of Chinese civilization. The dominant Confucian strain of scholarship was largely rationalistic in approach: its texts were philosophical and historical rather than imaginative and literary.

    Extractions: Main The writing of mythological tales began in the Wei and Jin Dynasties (220-420), when various writers, influenced by the alchemist's ideas and Taoist and Buddhist superstitions, were interested in inventing stories about gods and ghosts. Some of them show their unusual imagination and master of the written language. In the middle of the Tang Dynasty many well-known writers and poets began story writing. Their stories incorporate a wide range of subject matter and themes, reflecting various aspects of human nature, human relations and social life. In form they are not short notes like the tales produced before them, but well-structured stories with interesting plots and vivid characters, often several thousand words in length. Among them are many tales whose main characters are gods, ghosts, or foxes.

    Extractions: The author provides English translations of some 300 representative myth narratives selected from over 100 classical texts, many of which have never before been translated into any Western language. Organizing the narratives according to themes and motifs common to world mythology, Birrell addresses issues of source, dating, attribution, textural variants, multiforms, and context. Drawing on exhaustive work in comparative mythology, she surveys the development of Chinese myth studies, summarizes the contribution of Chinese and Japanese scholars to the study of Chinese myth since the 1920s, and examines special aspects of traditional approaches to Chinese myth. The result is an unprecedented guide to the study of Chinese myth for specialists and nonspecialists alike. Anne Birrell has taught Chinese literature at the City University of New York and the University of Cambridge. * Actual charges are made in Singapore Dollars (S$). S$1.00 = US$0.60

    Extractions: The book that Miaka and Yui get pulled in is called the Universe of the Four Gods . In fact, this one book is the entire storyline of the anime. No, the title doesn't come from creator Yuu Watase's imagination. In fact, Fushigi Yuugi is largely based on ancient Chinese mythology. The legends that talk about the four imminent and well-worshipped gods are really interesting. Well, the ancient Chinese always associated the four gods with each of the four seasons; each god with their own traits and significance to life on earth. These four gods were particularly held in higher esteem than most other gods. Also, they were different in the sense that they were beast gods, as opposed to human deities. In Fushigi Yuugi, these four gods are the protectors of the four kingdoms in ancient China.
