what is the purpose of a conclusion?

Answer 1

I'm not sure what your question is exactly...are you talking about the conclusion in a book? Or an essay?

The purpose of a conclusion in a book or essay is that it helps the reader find a sense of completeness to the written work, and it helps tie up the loose ends that may have puzzled the reader in previous paragraphs.

Hope that helps.

Answer 2

In writing or public speaking, a conclusion often serves to wrap up or sum up the essay/article/book/play/speech which it follows. In addition, a conclusion can be used to pose a challenge or make a suggestion to the readers or listeners - for example, "Now that you know all the facts, you should join the Big Brothers/Big Sisters to make a difference in a young person's life." A good conclusion may also include a quotation from an authority on the subject.
