In Self-Reliance written by Emerson talks about title and thesis, what that means is
the title says ''self-reliance'' and that means is to have self confidence because it's important to have confidence in yourself. The thesis also means an argument to what Emerson is trying to tell you.
Emerson's main idea was supported by tone because the author explains his emotions
in the essay, he does this by telling us how he said this on his first stanza on the poem of the beginning '' he says man is his own star, and that can render an honest and perfect man,'' which means that a man has his own star and is honest to be a perfect man.
The diction is another supporting detail because he uses that to describe his feelings for example, he uses '' To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men-- that is genius''.
The syntax is another supporting detail because the author puts the sentence together ''To believe your own thought, is to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men--that is genius, because he's describing his life and other people's opinions whether their wrong or right. I agree with him, because he says things that are true and are related to everyone's life.
A quote that Emerson uses is that ''being yourself is the greatest thing you could do to
yourself because being who you are is the most important thing you could do''. That quote is so true because were living in a world where being yourself isn't good enough for other people and you change who you are just so people can like you. I love who I am and I don't need anyone's opinion to not be myself, because being yourself is the greatest thing you could do, all you have to do is be happy with yourself.
Emerson ideas can help me in my own life because I can express myself the way I want to
and I don't have to rely on anyone to change my ways, because if someone tells me to change my ways, then their the ones who need to change.
