Introduction. _The Great Gatsby_, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Scribner’s, 1993, pp. xi-xiii. **## Examples_of_Thesis_Statements_and_Outline_1-1.docx** ii Last name i Outline _Thesis Statement_: In Lois Lowry’s novel _The Giver_, the life of the character of Jonas parallels the life of Jesus through the process of the laying of hands, shared hardships of knowing only what one other individual knows, being a boundary between what is known and unknown, and finally revealing a massive amount of hope that lies within each individual. I. Throughout Jonas’ experiences of memories being passed through The Giver by the placing of hands, the story begins to relate to stories of Jesus’ healing through the very same action. A. Jesus’ healing power is passed on to those suffering in the stories of the Bible. B. The memories, in Jonas’ case, are passed on to comfort baby Gabrielle and heal him in times of distress and comfort. II. Jesus experiences hardships and persecution throughout His life on earth, which can be paralleled to some that Jonas experiences throughout the novel. A. Because of whom He said He was and for knowing things that came only from God, His Father, Jesus was constantly rejected by citizens. B. Jonas begins to experience challenging times with his friends and family because of things that are known only to him in the community. III. The relation between Jesus and Jonas increases with their similarity of being boundaries between what is known and unknown. A. Jesus is a boundary between heaven and earth. B. Jonas is a boundary between the “outside” and the inner community. IV. An enormous amount of hope lies within Jesus and Jonas to help others and use their knowledge to save and release those that are trapped within their own lack of knowledge. A. Jesus wants to tell everyone the truth about God and allow all to be free from their sins. B. Jonas wants to release his memories to everyone so the community can be full of choices and freedom of individualism. **## ExamplesofIntroductionsfortheResearchPaper.docx** ## Examples of Introductions for the Research Paper In your introduction, you should begin by giving a general idea of your topic. You may begin with historical background information (if it is relevant), the impact your author has made on literature, etc. Throughout the introduction, you should slowly begin moving from general ideas to more specific ones. The final statement in your introduction should be your thesis statement. In general, you shouldn’t have any quotes in your introduction. However, if you find some “interesting” information to get your reader hooked, you may use it (just use it sparingly!). Here are three examples for you: Example #1: It is the early to middle 1900’s. The top Hollywood movie stars are Greta Garbo, Katherine Hepburn, and Bette Davis. The hottest young star of this time period is, of course, Shirley Temple. What do each of these people have in common? They are all movie stars—white movie stars. Although the black slave has been emancipated for quite some time, there are very few high-profile black role models during these years—male or female. African-American people still experience racism, poverty, and social rejection by whites. These negative aspects all contribute to the black experience, and Toni Morrison’s novel _The Bluest Eye_ depicts rather well the black experience of the early to middle 1900’s. Example #2: Walls are built to keep out the unwanted. Walls are built to separate, divide, or compartmentalize. Walls are built to isolate what is not desired to be seen. A wall of oppression swept across the great nation of America, enslaving a culture of people whom some viewed as inhuman. One African-American female author, Gloria Naylor, has created literary works that help society realize and appreciate the uniqueness and humanness of America’s oppressed black culture. Unlike the bastard birth of Brewster Place in Naylor’s story _The Women of Brewster Place_, her portrayals of black women were deliberate and defined, reflecting the proud heritage of black culture in American society. Individually, the female characters in Gloria Naylor’s _The Women of Brewster Place_ represent a number of character types, but, collectively, they portray a large segment of black women living in American during the mid-to-late twentieth century, searching for identity and self-worth. Example #3: For many individuals living in America, the word “geisha” has an attached meaning. Many people may mistakenly view geishas as simply overly-dressed prostitutes or nothing more than fantasy. It is all too easy to group geishas into a stereotypical view and visualize them as being inhuman, or even almost supernatural. However, the struggles and challenges faced by many geishas were brought to light by the writer Arthur Golden. Through his words, readers find a connection with these women and a concern for their histories that was not present before. In his first novel, _Memoirs of a Geisha_, Arthur Golden explores the mind of a young girl as she struggles to discover her own identity – not only as a geisha, but as a unique individual. **ThesisOutlineDirections.doc** This file is too large to display.
