Jean Francois Lyotard

Lyotard is well known for his articulation of postmodernism amd the analysis of the impact of postmodernity on the human condition.He believes in grand narratives, large scale theories and philosophies of the world for instance history, religion , the knowability of everything by science. Lyotard argues that we are made to believe that narratives of this kind are acceptable to represent us all. we have become aware of diffrences, aspirations and beliefs and desries and for that reason postmodernity is charactisied by micronarratives.
