Master Narrative
A Master Narrative is a grand and transhistorical narrative "that is deeply embedded in a particular culture." [1] Master narratives are broadly accepted, readily understood and identified with, and rarely questioned. Master narratives contain "powerful persuasive messages that not only resonate or “ring true,” but also compel a certain level of ideological identifi cation, behaviour, and actions."[2]
