	Yamato Takeru Summary
		According to the Nihonshoki and Kojiki, Yamato Takeru was the son of Keiko Tenno, the twelfth emperor.
		In the Nihonshoki, Yamato Takeru is the one and only crown prince who is relied on by his father as a man of perfected character in terms of the ideal Chinese Confucian.
		In the Nihonshoki, he leads his father's army, whereas in the Kojiki he is forced to enter enemy territory almost alone, as if he had been expelled from the Yamato region, even though he had shown obedience to his father.

		Nihonshoki, inoltre, è quanto mai evidente il bisogno di ‘ordinare’ la materia mitologica secondo livelli di importanza decisi da ragioni dinastiche, ovvero per testimoniare e avvallare la supremazia di una etnia ben precisa, quella di Yamato, proveniente dalle regioni centrali dell’odierna Nara.
		Nihonshoki questa motivazione politica è molto più forte e il risultato è quello di presentare una materia mitologia più coesa, meno contraddittoria; si lascia spazio alle varianti regionali, ma ci si preoccupa di strutturarle e di spiegarle in un quadro di chiaro riferimento alla dinastia uscita vincente dalla lotta fra i vari
