Compare & Contrast

Bruce Lee used to say that through the contrast of comparison some new thing might grow. The purpose of these kinds of essays is to open up potential understanding or draw new conclusions about something by studying it in relation to something else.

Write a paragraph that addresses the following statement: The media portrayal of Frankenstein greatly conflicts with Mary Shelley's original story. Now, you can agree or disagree with that statement, but your end purpose is to outline how true or false that statement is based on examples that you provide and how well you make your argument. (Make sure that you provide reasoning and examples to support your conclusions.)
