About This Topic

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Marx and Rousseau on Property
This paper analyzes and compares the views of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Karl Marx on the role of property in economic and social relations. Both authors saw private property as the source of evil and exploitation in the modern era. But they offered different solutions to address this problem. Marx advocated a revolutionary struggle and wanted to abolish private property altogether, whereas Rousseau defended limited possession of private property but wanted it to be regulated by a state that represents common will.

Compare and Contrast the Different Statues of David
I choose the two contrasting statues of David, the one created by Michaelangelo, the other created by Bernini. They seem to me to represent two juxtaposing poses and two variants of the same mythical figure, David. Both statues are nude only that of Bernini's is covered with a loincloth. The most dramatical difference is that Michaelangelo's David stands in a contemplative pose looking to the right with hand slung over his shoulder as though seizing up and contemplating his circumstances and opponent, whilst Bernini's David is in active position intent on , and in the very act of, slinging his foe.
