Religious satire serves to shed light on the hypocrisy and corruption within organized religion, critiquing the deviation from religious teachings. In contemporary literature, a shift is seen where satire targets not just deviations, but rejects the interpretations of religious teachings. Thus, the study investigates the characteristics of religious satire in the play of Robert Askins "Hand to God." In light of Lyotard's theory of meta narrative, it aims to explore the evolution of religious satire in literature, specifically focusing on its altered focus from critiquing deviations to rejecting interpretations of religious teachings. The study examines Robert Askins's play "Hand to God" to elucidate how this transformation is portrayed and understood in the context of metanarratives. The present study uses Lyotard's theory of metanarratives as methodological tool , encompassing overarching explanations of reality. A close examination would show sophisticated emphasis that goes beyond just criticizing deviations from religious teachings. Instead of emphasising these deviations, the play questions conventional understandings of religious teachings, echoing Lyotard's assessment of the diminishing influence of metanarratives in contemporary society. The play emphasises the emergence of multiple narratives in a culture where once-universal certainties no longer rule the roost through its irreverent treatment of religious notions |
