How does one link? (1 Viewer)

[Zeref]

I've been reading in guides and told by people that you must always try to link back to your thesis throughout your essay. How do you do that without making yourself seem repetitive?

Your thesis should often be overarching with a lot of different elements to it so when you have evidence inside your essays and stuff you link it back to those aspects. Eventually you build it up until it reaffirms the point you are trying to make so your "links" aren't repetitive, but cumulative.

Not sure if that's the right way, but that's how I did it for my relationships essay and it worked out.

Your paragraph would be structured something like


In [text], [concept] is demonstrated through the [sub-set of concept]. This is evident in the relationship between [characters] in [section of text]. [Character] states

, whereby the use of [technique] illustrates [sub-concept]. The [sub-concept] is illustrated as such to show the positive effects of [concept], as it serves to deepen the relationship between [characters] and tie them to each others living narrative. Therefore, it is evident that [concept] is an important and multi-layered influence on our lives.

E.g.

In Shrek, Belonging is demonstrated through the depiction of trust. This is evident in the relationship between Donkey and Shrek in the last third of the film, where they have settled in for the night. Donkey states 'She wasn't talking about you, she was talking about... somebody else", whereby the use of a pause before 'somebody else' illustrates the conflict Donkey has between the trust Fiona has placed in him, and the trusting friendship he has built with Shrek. The concept of trust is illustrated as such to show the positive effects of trusting another, but also the conflicting that can simultaneous occur because of it, as it serves to deepen the relationship between Donkey and Shrek and tie them to each others living narrative. Therefore, it is evident that Belonging is an important and multi-layered influence on our lives.

Stuff in bold is the link to your argument for that paragraph. Stuff in italics is the link to your overall argument that answers the question.

what if i wanted to focus it on just a few aspects on belonging?

so as I embed my essay with these links, i replace some words with synonyms/re-arrange the sentences to avoid it sounding repetitive?

The link to your argument should be different for every paragraph. The link back to the question should be similar, but draw from what has been proved in the argument. My example isn't great (3 seconds of thought FTW) , but you can sort of see how the argument feeds into the final link e.g. Because I had conflict of trust, I could say it was multi-layered.
