though modern and contemporary 雖然是摩登和當代藝術的時代=>所以正常主流觀點該是要有摩登和當代藝術的意義為主流。
雖然Though modern and contemporary, their work has not been “emptied of previous vital meanings” and become a meaningless revival, as has so much ethnic art of this day.
看到雖然,就是正、反意思表達的意思。也就是 "但"的意思。這大意是說這樣。
=>
雖然就算是在現在流行的是摩登和當代藝術時期(指的是風格),但是他們的作品至現在一直並不缺乏以往的重要意義象徵(種族,宗教、古風格之類的),然後也成功的變成了一個現在已有如此多的種族藝術一樣的無意義的復興
Rather it has remained as an object of cultural pride and identity and not simply the product of the tastes and demands of art market.
他們的作品到現在一直是較傾向維持作為一個文化榮譽的象徵,而不是藝術市場的審美與需求的產品。
==>大意是說
意思是說就像原住民文化一樣,沒有摩登現代藝術的審美價值和需求價值,但有文化保留的價值,傳統手工藝價值…做草帽、紙傘之類的…。

這裡的of 是 有關…的 方面 這句我來翻: Total loyalty is possible only when 完全忠誠只有在這時是可能,當 忠貞被清空了有關(of)f所有具體(of的)內容。這所有具體內容是變心能從這些內容出現。
=> 完全忠誠只有在這時是可能,當忠貞的定義,被清空了所有的有關變心可能會出現的具體內容(會出現的地方)
