Support

LESSON SUMMARY
Your thesis is as important as the evidence that supports it. This les-
son describes six different strategies for supporting your assertions.




I n Lesson 1, the word friendly was used to describe the “general reader.” It’s important to think of your reader
this way, because when you write for a friendly audience, you won’t be tempted to employ an unnecessar-
ily adversarial or defensive tone. But friendly doesn’t mean that the reader will accept everything and any-
thing you say. Unsubstantiated assertions will be questioned, and evidence will be required.
An essay is an explanation, not just of what you think, but of why you think it. The why comprises many
types of support, including evidence, examples, and details. Most types of support are in one of six categories:

1. specific examples
2. facts
3. reasons
4. descriptions and anecdotes
5. expert opinion and analysis
6. quotations from the text
