Thesis for Research Paper (2)

So far I have an idea of what to write about but I don't know how to put it into thesis form! haha

I want to talk about Persepolis, and show Sartrapi's experiences as a little girl into her teen years shape her as a person and how it ends...I want to include examples and I guess find an article that will be along these lines!

My thesis:

Marjane Satrapi goes through events in her childhood that later shape her as a person when she finds her identity coming to and from Iran...

^something among those lines!!??

Any suggestions please?!

I like the idea :)
Maybe in your thesis you could say that her views change when she is forced to go to Austria and live, almost abandoning her Iranian background...
I think that was an important part, maybe incorporate it?

good ideas... I think that talking about war and conflicts and how they shape our own personal identities is a very important issue.

i totally like the idea about how she loses her self identity in Austria. That seems like a good place to go.

Dude, I'm totally into it. Sounds like your well on your way. I'm jealous, but only entirely.

I think that this will be a good topic to write about those none of have experience the things she has in this text, there have been and there will be more crisis in american. I think this is a good topic to discuss and people can put themselves in her shoes with the attack on 911

Good start i think that is going to give you alot to work with since she changes her ideas on what she "is" several times throughout the book first she wants to be a disciple and some events change that then she wants to be.... so i think you have plenty to write about maybe find some outside sources like a biography to see what has happened since the end of the book
