To provide support for a text analysis, writers use evidence. This evidence can come from the text itself, such as direct quotes or specific examples, or it can come from external sources, such as research studies or expert opinions. By using evidence, writers can support their claims and provide credibility to their analysis. When analyzing a text, writers should look for evidence that supports their interpretation or argument and incorporate it into their analysis to strengthen their points.
