WHAT I MEANT TO SAY WAS

I'm still a bit shaky as to how exactly present my thesis in the best light possible.
I feel like this was a very straight forward prompt that did not allow for the sort of high level thesis creation that is expected from an AP perspective.

Here's my original thesis used on the mid-term essay exam:
Chaucer's Canterbury Tales had a very specific purpose because through careful characterization and a satiric tone, Chaucer was able to voice the voiceless during his time and satirize those who were too loud.

The re-do:
Through the use of a satirizing tone and intricate characterization, Chaucer's Canterbury Tales is able to mock the flawed social structure of the time it was written in.
