Odyssey/O Brother Compare/Contrast


Reflect on one particular issue, character, theme, symbol, motif, or conflict that is relevant to both the epic and the film.  In a well developed response, compare and contrast the portrayal of this issue, character, theme or motif.  Make specific references to both the epic and the film.

Choose one of the compare/contrast styles presented in your packet (point by point or subject by subject).

This response is designed to take you approximately thirty minutes to write. I am looking for quality of writing, not quantity.

Do not just point out the obvious and summarize--analyze.

This response will be due on turnitin.com by Sunday night.

Here is a sample essay that I wrote. Please do not write about the same topic; however, please do use this essay as a model to assist you.
