What are the motifs in Myths to Live By by Joseph Campbell?

The dichotomy between Heaven and Hell is a constant motif in many belief systems. Several of the literary sources Campbell incorporates into his discussion posit the notion that heaven and hell are places men enter into during their lives on earth, and so when they pass into them in the afterlife, they are just continuing along in familiar territory, already having arranged their priorities and values in such a way that the things that have been most important to them are the things they continue to serve in the afterlife. Dante's "Inferno" sends its protagonist past some of the world's most famous lovers in hell, suggesting that they had chosen those passions over their devotion to God and so are allowed to continue serving those passions in the afterlife.
