Include Argument Question Main Quote Theme Relevant Make

Front What you should include in your introduction/thesis:
Back Your main argument that will be proved throughout the rest of your essay.
You could write about the writer's purpose
You could include a quote from the text that perfectly encapsulates the theme of the question or character: only do this if you feel as if this is a relevant quote that would strengthen and/or back up your argument, not just because you know the quote.
Include an alternative argument
If relevant you could make a sophisticated link between your main argument and a contextual factor
Use the wording of the question to make it clear that you are addressing the question and not talking about a random theme or character.
