Translation examples
The missing maternal presence is supplied by Banti—an author in search of her character, instead of the reverse, Pirandellian, quest—as if somehow Artemisia’s pain, Artemisia’s sorrows, could be alleviated by the gift of sympathy that would come when an Italian writer born in 1895 would bring back to life the Italian painter born in the 1590s and would really understand her.3
Banti suplanta la carente presencia materna —un autor en busca de su personaje, en lugar de la búsqueda opuesta, pirandelliana— como si de alguna manera el dolor de Artemisia, las penas de Artemisia, pudieran aliviarse con el don de la compasión que sobrevendría cuando una escritora nacida en 1895 trajera de nuevo a la vida a la pintora italiana nacida en el decenio de1590 y la comprendiera de verdad.[*]
