Translation for "handlungsmacht" to english
Translation examples
Die Kritik eines anderen Kommilitonen begann so: »Zunächst mal muss ich sagen, dass ich keine der Figuren mochte. […] Ich musste Protagonisten, die mir nicht am Herzen lagen, dabei zusehen, wie sie Dinge taten, die ihnen offenbar ebenfalls nicht am Herzen lagen.« Es stimmte: Ich hatte mich bemüht, Sophie so wenig Handlungsmacht und Antrieb zu geben wie möglich.
Another guy’s critique began like this: “I should start by saying that I did not find any of the characters likable at all … I had to follow characters I had trouble caring about while they did things I had trouble believing they cared about.” It was true: I’d been wary of giving Sophie much agency or investment. I knew the events of her story hovered at the brink of melodrama, and I feared that if I let her do anything, she might fling herself over the edge.
