one of the best-known European artists of her/his generation Explanation: = "una delle artiste europee della sua generazione che ha avuto la maggiore diffusione...." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-05-27 15:39:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- OK following Peter's note, my answer is "one of the best-known European artists of her generation" NB not "most successful". That is not what the Italian text is saying. |

the greatest impact Explanation: This is only a suggestion as it does not translate exactly but are they not trying to say that she is one of the European artists of her generation that has had the greatest impact on the world of theatre (as I would translate stage arts) |
