Summary is just a recap of what you have just read, watched, saw, etc. Summary is "to make a
long
story short". In a summary there is no drama or action, just a quick description of the story to let the
person you are summarizing to get the gist or idea.
Analysis is more of a critique. If I saw a movie and wanted my friend to see the movie I would
give a short summary and then put my opinion of the movie in, maybe I saw past the obvious plot
and
saw a deeper, hidden meaning. For example: The Cinderella story in our tutorial. Cinderella seems to
be a sad
and tragic story that has a turn for the better and ends "happily ever after" but some see the story as
the male dominated world keeping the women down. That right there is analysis and not summary.

I think of how we can summarize the fight but most people analyze the fight. If you see chat rooms or
listen to friends talking after a fight you get a lot of opinion and what "they" think really happened.
Please see the video below for help on the Summary vs. Analysis subject.
