My conclusion provides a summary of my findings and suggests the broader stakes of my work. It explicitly states the ways my analysis and evidence have built towards my argument. It comments on how these findings fit into what already exists. It might also point towards directions for future research or make connections to the present era. I will want to leave my reader feeling confident in my work and convinced of its importance. As I write this section, I may want to imagine that I am shaking my fist. Make it count.
