Answer:

Progressive

Explanation:

This is a clearly progressive statement because it departs significantly from traditional notions, i.e., conceptions established  at a previous time that persist historically through repetition, in this case, about what makes a piece of writing count as literature. The author rejects the traditional and broadly accepted idea that there is an intrinsic essence to literary texts that differentiate them from non-literary texts.

Which of these is a question used to develop a thesis statement? What evidence supports my position? Why is this important to me
prisoha [69]

Answer:

You can develop a thesis statement by answering three questions:

What is my topic?

What am I trying to say about that topic?

Why is this important to me or my reader?

Explanation:

The thesis statement is placed within the introduction of the essay. It is usually found at the end of the first paragraph, but if the essay is particularly long, the thesis may also appear in the second or third paragraph.  If the "essay" is only one paragraph long, the thesis statement is usually in the first or second sentence.
