Nov 17, 2017 at 18:51 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | It looks to me like a kind of fronting (moving a syntactic element from its "natural" position to the front of an utterance). The natural phrasing would be These pieces were so admired that they blah blah (or ...were admired so much...). It's a poetic/literary device, not common in normal conversational contexts. | |
