English term or phrase: one of the most persistent denigrations of women novelists
Hello,
How would you translate "one of the most persistent denigrations of women novelists" into Farsi?
My suggestion: یکی از پردوام‌ترین بدنامی‌هایی که نسبت به رمان‌نویسان زن نسبت داده می‌شد

One of the most persistent denigrations of women novelists was the theory that only unhappy and frustrated women
wrote books. G. H. Lewes, writing in 1852, was one of the earliest to analyze the "compensatory" nature of female
literature:

Explanation:
I think, سیاه‌نمایی conveys the meaning better than بدنامی because بدنامی‌ can be referred to the character of the author which is not the point here.

Notes to answerer
Asker: I totally agree with you. Looking up the etymology of the word, I found that 'niger' meant black in Middle English. Thank you.

I think, سیاه نمایی، is better definition for denigration. I think, بدنامی, creates negative mentality for reader. Also, ماندگارترین، is more fluenu than پایدارترین.
