will happen yet it doesn't give specific detail. It gives no opinion from the writer therefore there is no
argument or question. However it is telling the information in the writers own words, just using the main
points. You are summarizing the book, movie, article etc exactly how it is as if you were doing a report.
Every main point is in order as if you are rewriting a shorter version.
A analysis is almost opposite of a summary. It allows for focus on certain parts of the book. movie, article
etc. Opening the door to discussion, arguments and curiosity. It does have to tell the reader every main point
leaving things unknown. Analysis is the writers opinion, there fore you could read ten analysis from the same
book and everyone of them may be different, opening your eyes to things the other analysis did not. In a
way like a review of a product.

Great point under analysis, that " you could read ten analysis from the same book and everyone of them may be different".
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with Corrie, the was great the way you discribed how differnt each analysis is. I also really like how you said "Open the door for discussions...", because that is a way we can open our minds and learn new ideas. Also, your image was perfect.
ReplyDeleteThis is so true - what you say - summary is a very brief retelling of the story while analysis is telling others your point of view. And each Analyst has their own point of view.
ReplyDeleteI liked the way that you explained the difference between the two it was very clear and well spoken.
