(Example: A comparative analysis of the female characters in “Paradise Lost”. This essay should have a strong thesis statement (placed at the end of the first paragraph) that will set out what you plan to prove in the rest of the paper.  Your introduction should also provide a road map, or overview, of what your main points are going to be.  Prove your argument by presenting evidence(s) from the text and outside research that has led you to hold the opinion that you do.  Make sure that you relate every detail you include to your main point or thesis, and show how it strengthens your case.  The conclusion at the end of your essay should review your major points and round out your argument.  I am looking for your own well-considered interpretation, informed by clearly documented outside reading.
