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.

Emily Dickinson's poems and literary significance
This paper uses three poems by Emily Dickinson---"Tell all the truth but tell it slant," "If you were coming in the fall," and "She rose to his requirement"---in order to illuminate Ezra Pound's poem "The River-Merchant's Wife: A Letter". The first of Dickinson's poems is compared to Pound's poem in terms of techniques of emotional reticence. The second Dickinson poem is compared to Pound's poem in terms of how it uses imagery. The final Dickinson poem is discussed as the most accurate parallel to what Pound has achieved in "The River-Merchant's Wife," because the two share a similar approach to dramatizing female psychology.
