    Juxtaposition of characterisation
    And oftentimes, to win us to our harm, the instruments of
    darkness tell us truths;|Win us in honest trifles, to betrays|In
    deepest consequence. (Banquo)

    Enrights play, A Property of the Clan, also explores the


    concept of power. It highlights that power is unequally
    distributed in our society- some have it and others do not.
    (unequal power between men and women- patriarchal society)
    Characterisation
    Girls cant balance right. Their centre of gravity is all up the
    shit. (Ricko)

    CONCLUSION
    - Restate thesis
    -Summarise ideas
    -Strong concluding
    statement

    In conclusion, both Enrights A Property of the Clan and Shakespeares


    Macbeth use dramatic techniques to illustrate that power impacts upon
    individuals in different ways. Both texts communicate the idea that the
    unequal nature of power in its types, use and abuses means that its impact
    on individuals is equally diverse and varied.
