It seems to be don't really understand what "stylistic loans" are.
The rest of the text, though somewhat complicated, seems to be about writing style.
"Can it be said to be true that "contemporary style and historical flashbacks can be mixed together with personal style without this mixture of styles ever creating a convincing synthesis"
Hope this helps

| | What do you think about it now? |

| | This is good, but "Is it so that" doesn't sound like English. It would be better to say something like "Is it the case that" or "Is it true that". |

| | I have to admit I got a bit confused reading this text and looked up "stylistic loans" to get some kind of idea what is being talked about here. |

| | Maybe "style borrowings" would be better. Where did you look it up, itsatrap100? |

| | Stylistic borrowings/loans is the correct term. You are right.
I looked it up in my Collins German dictionary. Anleihe = meaning 1) loan 2) bond
Online I found many more uses of "borrowings" than "loans". |

| | There's nothing wrong with looking a word up in a dictionary. Shall we agree on "stylistic borrowings" then? I think we can accept this now. |

| | I've been looking up a lot of words in dictionaries recently. |
