Pagan religions and goddess worship are the subjects of Campbell's work. He explores how the goddess is linked to both life and death, agriculture and spirituality. I expected him to delve more into the goddess cults of history but he does spend a lot of time providing a synopsis of myths too. This I feel detracts from the focus, as a lot of attention is given to Zeus and Odysseus, Atlas and other heroes.
