  1. i didnt really know where to post this, but here is the thesis statement that i came up with:

    through the novel WE, Yevgeny Zamyatin conveys the idea that external and internal confict in a society balence through the balencing of Previous external conflict(200 years war) and the need for protection(glass) and uprising within the current society(I-330) against the previously created protection(breaking the glass sheild). Zamyatin does this in order to reveal the constant balence of internal vs. external peace in a society.

    i know my "So What?" is a little off. please dont take this and make it our thesis, i would very much like you to understand it and interpret it in a way that makes sense ^_^. im good at ideas, just not communicating them. please post questions or something, i will be checking frequently as i work on my LAB.
