What is the exact meaning of "as" and "had done" in this sentence?
Hello teachers,
I have a question about the exact meaning of "as" and "had done" in the following sentence.
"Among its effects was that composers could fix their music exactly as they wished it to be performed, as poets had long been able to set down their poems, leading them to take pride in authorship as few composers had done before the fourteenth century."
Thank you in advace.
