I'm writing a literary analysis on Self-Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson and my thesis statement is...
History shows that society often rejects those with great ideas because those ideas are different.

I would say "different from the norm" at the end.

I would have to say that it is a very fine thesis statement, with brief but precise information. But instead of "those" the first time put in "people with great ideas". This eliminates repetition.

It sounds like a good hypothesis. If you are using the scientific method, then you need to bring out the evidence to refute they hypothesis.

It's nothing extraordinary, but it's still great!

I think so but don't say "those" twice.
