Always happy to answer a question about one of my favorite books! The Prince and the Pauper is so much fun that it's almost a shame that student's have to write papers about it.
Here is your introduction, edited to the best of my ability:
It is part of the nature of man to crave freedom, to demand it and to fight for it. Perhaps we are destined to be free whether we like it or not--because to be free is to be responsible. The desire, struggle for, and inevitabilty of freedom is evident in the Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain, in which the characters Tom and Edward engage in psychological , physical and spiritual struggle for freedom.
By the way, your thesis is very interesting. I never thought of The Prince and the Pauper as being primarily about freedom, but I think you've got an interesting point.
