Be sure your essay has and/or includes the following: • An introduction • A substantial development section that includes quotes from the texts to support your analysis and discussion • A conclusion Memory, souvenir or remembrance can play a significant role as “healing device and tool for redemption” Sturken (1997), . Memory recurs as an important theme in the texts read. Write a comparative essay—drawing from two texts—that analyzes memory as a trope by these authors.
