English term or phrase: slack
Con "slack" si intende forse il vuoto che Satie aveva lasciato ?? Grazie....non riesco ad afferrare il senso

Testo:
"What slack Satie left, however, Cocteau was eager to utilize to gain recognition of the group's work and
his aesthetic gospel."

Grazie.

(periodi di) inattività


Explanation:
La interpreto così: ci sono dei momenti in cui Satie è un po' 'inconcludente' nel suo slancio artistico, in cui si lascia un poco trascinare da un senso di pigrizia (considerando anche quanto bizzarro fosse il personaggio), ed è qui che Cocteau si inserisce.

Explanation:
Direi: ciò che l'indolente Satie aveva lasciato

Vedi la sua biografia e questo articolo:
Quel point commun entre le pianiste Bertrand Chamayou, l'indolent Satie et le turbulent Stravinsky ?

gli spazi di manovra/di azione


Explanation:
tenderei a interpretarlo così... però bisognerebbe vedere che cosa viene prima, l'atteggiamento di Satie in questo periodo.
