Compare/Contrast Essay
Your assignment is to write a multi-paragraph essay that compares and contrasts how the story of Oedipus is conveyed in the play Oedipus Rex and the poem Jocasta (think about plot, character, point of view, etc). You will use one of the two organizational arrangements of comparison and contrast (block or point by point) to explain your unique opinion on the different representations of the same story (evaluate). Essays should be 2-3 pages in length (typed MLA format, double-spaced).
