An exposition is a piece of work that explains a certain topic to the reader. Through an exposition, the writer also tries to analyse the events and persuade the reader to agree with his point of view.
A good exposition will not only provide information supporting the author's point of view, but it will also consider the alternative viewpoint, allowing the reader to make his own conclusion of the points presented.
However, this is only a portion of expository writing. Expository writing can also include writing such as recipes, cookbooks, personal letters, as well as news features.
