Résumé anglais Regulating custom by customary means: Matrimonial Rules and the wedding-tie-knotting deity of Izumo Great Shrine (Japan) The matrimonial customs, at the crossroads between social fundamental rules and familial strategies, seems to give few space to individual desire. Thought, one can point some places in Japan, which regulate the conflict between social norma, expressed by the custom, and personal desire, to say love desire. Describing the cult of the love-knot deity of Izumo Great Shrine, the votive scriptures which are addressed to the god and the ancient texts relating the cult, we would like to discut the custom way that Japan create in its process of forming a cultural unity to overcome the local matrimonial customs.
