Answer 1

reasons that support a viewpoint
supporting evidence and commentary
a thesis statement

Answer 2

The body of the paragraph of a literary analysis must always contain three things; a reason to support the viewpoint, a thesis statement and of course, supporting evidence.

The establishment of the viewpoint is key hence it is supplemented with reasons.

A thesis statement is what gives form to that viewpoint and is later ratified with proper literary evidence.
