Writing a “Mrs. Weber Thesis” MUY IMPORTANTE: All of the prompts involve interpretations about the author’s purpose—why Shakespeare intentionally created his characters and their words the way he has to make the play meaningful. The good news is that leaves the spin on things up to you; the challenge, however, is that you need to have a point, and you have to make it persuasive. Puzzle Pieces fit together as follows… _____________, ___________________ ‘because’ word ____________________ Transition word + specific subject matter + + “So What?” Element Examples • Thus, • Therefore, • Ultimately, • Although Examples •The role of women •Parallelism in Mark Antony’s speech •Cassius’s persuasive techniques Examples • suggests • expresses • because • to • for ? Example: “Thus, Mrs. Weber assigned a literary analysis essay for Julius Caesar to give her sophomores practice in developing their own interpretations and using a formal academic voice.”
