Thesis Statement: an explicit statement of the purpose, intent or main idea of a piece of writing
|
The thesis statement presents a point worth making. The text is supported with relevant and sophisticated vocabulary without intimidating the reader. The reader wants to keep going and find the resolution or the answer to questions posed by the author. It is possible to trace the statement through the entire paper without having to search for connections.
|
The thesis statement is a road map for the piece. The statement contains powerful and evocative imagery that pulls in someone interested in the topic. Nothing in the piece deviates from the thesis and it is explicitly clear how each section connections back to the statement.

The thesis statement is advertisement that tells the reader where the essay will go, address, or accomplish. It establishes, in purposeful and evocative language, what the essay will do. The statement pulls in even the most reluctant reader. The essay contains information that may seem disconnected but the thesis pulls it all together.
|
The beginning of the text breaks the rules for writing a thesis and presents the center of the text in a new and evocative way. The theme or argument is explicit to the reader but is presented in a way that is new and compelling. The entire piece hinges on a single message while maintaining the tension with a renaissance approach.
