James K.A. Smith Quote
For Lyotard, metanarratives are a distinctly modern phenomenon: they are stories that not only tell a grand story (since even premodern and tribal stories do this) but also claim to be able to legitimate or prove the story's claim by an appeal to universal reason...It is the supposed rationality of modern scientistic stories about the world that makes them a metanarrative [pg. 65].
