Lyotard rejected what he called the 'Grand Narratives' or universal 'Meta Narratives'.
Principally, the grand narratives refer to the great theorie of history, science, religion and politics. For example, Lyotard rejects the ideas that everything is knowable by science or that as history moves forward in time, humanity makes progress. He would reject universal political solutions such as communism or capitalism. He also rejects the idea of absolute freedom.
