I still don't understand the definition or concept of contextualize.

What project are you working on? Perhaps if I know a bit more detail on your paper I can help provide direction. Contextualization is about setting the stage for what you are going to say. It is essentially placing your ideas/arguments in a larger setting so that the reader can understand and fully appreciate their meaning/significance. Think of a movie or novel--every story contextualizes its protagonist at the beginning so that we fully appreciate the struggles he/she goes through over the course of the story. In Lord of the Rings, Frodo is seen as a homebody in the beginning, not at all inclined to adventure. Because the film/book places him in this context at the beginning, we understand how hard his struggles are as he strives to destroy the ring. Does that help?
