A comparative analysis is an essay in which two things are compared and contrasted. You may have done a “compare and contrast” paper in your English class, and a comparative analysis is the same general idea, but as a graduate student you are expected to produce a higher level of analysis in your writing. You can follow these guidelines to get started.
Conduct your research. Need help? Chat with a librarian or schedule a research appointment.
Brainstorm a list of similarities and differences. The Double Bubble document linked below can be helpful for this step.
Write your thesis. This will be based on what you have discovered regarding the weight of similarities and differences between the things you are comparing.
Write the body of your paper. There are two main approaches to organizing a comparative analysis:
Alternating (point-by-point) method: Find similar points between each subject and alternate writing about each of them.
Block (subject-by-subject) method: Discuss all of the first subject and then all of the second.
This page from the University of Toronto gives some great examples of when each of these is most effective.
