Answer:Because your goal for this essay is to discuss how Shakespeare transformed the original source, you’ll want to focus, first, on what they both have in common (comparing similar attributes).  Then, you’ll want to focus on how elements of similarities were changed or how new things entirely were added or how things may have even been omitted (contrast).   This can be done in one of two ways—block or point by point.  

If you format the essay in block format, you’ll first discuss in a paragraph or two elements selected for discussion in “Pyramus and Thisbe.”  Then, after you finish discussing Ovid’s myth, you’ll discuss, also in a paragraph or two, the elements being compared/contrasted in Shakespeare’s work.  Be sure to discuss the same points in the same order in block method.  A compare/contrast essay in this method might resemble the following:

INTRO PARAGRAPH

BODY PARAGRAPH – Ovid

Attribute 1

Attribute 2

Attribute 3

BODY PARAGRAPH – Shakespeare

Attribute 1

Attribute 2

Attribute 3

CONCLUSION

Another method used when constructing a compare/contrast essay is called point by point.  In this format, you will discuss elements of both works within the same paragraph and do so point by point.  An essay constructed in this manner might resemble the following:

INTRODUCTION

PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare

PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare

PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare

CONCLUSION

In this type for format, be sure to always discuss the same work first.  Thus, Ovid should always be mentioned first, then you’ll follow that up with a discussion of Shakespeare because, after all, you are supposed to be discussing how Shakespeare changed things, and this would make the most sense.   Point by point would probably be the most efficient manner in which to highlight the transformations made by Shakespeare since it would keep both elements fresh within the mind/eye of the reader.

Compare and contrast means to analyze the similarities and differences between the myth and the play.

For example: Difference: The story of Pyramus and Thisbe is a tragedy, while the play is a comedy.

Similarity: The characters' basic situation is the same in both the play and the myth.

Then, put these ideas into paragraphs with a conclusion and introduction.

Talk about how Shakespeare transformed the sources by turning it from a tragedy to a comedy, and how he also stayed true to the source by keeping the characters and the main events they engage in the same.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

I corrected some parts of your story and added some extra details. I don't know if this fits into your story but I hope this helps!

Explanation:

It was dinnertime, and Lea had to return to her house. When she arrived at home, she was searching for her dress and entered her parent's room to see if the missing boy was there. When she opened the door, she stood paralyzed at the horrendous sight. She discovered small chunks of the missing boy's body laying on the floor, full of blood. His head was decapitated from the boy's torso and small pieces of his skin on his hand were peeled off. Blood was stained on the walls and a sharp razor was sitting on the edge of her mother's drawer. The razor was drenched with dried blood and dark black marks. She screamed with horror and silently whimpered. She kneeled, staring at the motionless body. She stayed in place for 15 minutes, shielding her eyes away from the scene. Her body was trembling and her eyes were brimming with tears.

Suddenly, she collapsed on the ground. She remained unconscious until her parents returned from work. "Lea!" her parents called. "Lea!", they shouted once again. Lea's eyes began to open and her parents sighed in relief. After 20 minutes, Lea's parents explained the whole situation to her. Lea's parents reassured her that everything is okay and that they love her.

Lea loves her parents since the day that they adopted her. She felt a special connection with them, unlike anything she has ever experienced. Lea felt  a sense of uncertainty, she felt like it was unacceptable that her parents murdered the missing boy.
