"The there are other bodies of tradition-constituted enquiry which not only merit attention in their own right but whose omission will leave my argument significantly incomplete...

That enterprise by its very nature has to take, initially at least, a narrative form. What a tradition of enquiry has to say, both to those within and to those outside it, cannot be disclosed in any other way. To be an adherent of a tradition is always to enact some further stage in the development of one's tradition; to understand another tradition is to attempt to supply, in the best terms imaginatively and conceptually available to one - and later we shall see what problems can arise over this - the kind of account which an adherent would give... the narrative task itself generally involves participation in conflict." - Alasdair MacIntyre, Whose Justice? Which Rationality?
