I would think that you might start with the most obvious fact that the
Sonata is in 1 movement.  Part of Liszt's somewhat iconoclastic efforts in
breakin free of the more conventional divisions in sonatas, concertos and
other musical forms.  His 2 best-known concertos are also good examples of
his thinking along these lines.

Another tack might be that Liszt was not the only one to further the
modification of establisned norms.  His one-movement works generally
"sounded" like multi-movement works due to changes in
mood/texture/tempo/etc.  Saint-Saens did a similar fusing of movements in
his 4th concerto, with its 2 movements sounding more like 4.  Delving into
Liszt's influence on others might be outside the parameters of you essay.

You might also check out the Liszt Web Page, no doubt accessible thru the
Classical Net..
