What is Contrast?

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.

The play ‘Trifles' brings various philosophical and ethical conundrums into play, one of these are the very thin line that is existent between law and between its exceptions. You have the two women arraigned against the men; both of these – or at least one of these – realizes that the victim is likely the murdered of her husband. They recognize her guilt, whilst they recognize her plight and conspire to shield her. By doing so, they collaborate in perverting justice, but even as they do so we, the reader, are unsure about the woman's guilt. She seemed to kill her husband – the signs point to it.
