According to one of the most popular classifications, solar flares may be assigned either to the category of small short-lived events, or to the category of large, long-duration two-ribbon (2-R) flares. It is worthwhile to investigate the possibility of adopting this classification scheme for stellar flares as well. Einstein observations of a long duration flare on EQ Peg are presently analyzed to establish whether it might be considered as a stellar analogy of 2-R solar events. Stellar observations are consistent with model predictions, although additional information is required to identify uniquely the physical parameters of the flare region. Application of the model to integrated observations of a 2-R solar flare, for which high spatial resolution data are also available, shows, however, that future integrated observations may allow the model to be used as a diagnostic tool for a better understanding of stellar flares.
