Thesis Statement

Rochester has two side to himself in both Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea. Mr. Rochester's good and bad sides will be compared.

  1. I think you have a great idea, but i was taught that thesis statements are more powerful when written in one sentence. It also makes it clearer. This second sentence isn't even really necessary, because the reader will find that out in your compare and contrast.

  2. Reformat your idea to create a stronger thesis. Maybe you could specify what two sides there are to Rochester in your thesis.

  3. Pick one side. Choose whether R is a hero or a villain and how both authors portray him as such. The purpose here is to persuade your reader of a specific point, not merely compare aspects of a character.
