Does this mean something along the lines of 'all that was left was...' ??
Sentence:
Ma, sfaldatesi le ideologie storiciste, quelle che Jean-François Lyotard avrebbe chiamato “metanarrazioni”, non restava che una visione plurale del tempo che aveva in sé, insiti, i presupposti della crisi postmoderna.
Thanks, all.
