But that I knew it over twenty-five years ago — that I knew it while ** was being rejected by twelve publishers, some of whom decleared that it was "too intellectual", "too controversial" and would not sell because no audience existed for it — that was the difficult part of its history; difficult for me to bear.

红色部分的三个主语是指同一件事吗？这句句子的主语是什么呢？谢谢

前面两个that分别引导了一个主语从句的从句部分（和was the diffcult part of its history构成主语从句），第三个that复指前面的两个从句（部分）。

去掉第三个that可不可以啊？

大神，我这样问是因为之前那句句子也是两个that从句开头的，就没加第三个that,这里却加了。那照前面那句句子的结构，这里不加算不算错呢？就是破折号后可以直接加谓语和前面的两个that从句连起来吗？谢谢

请注意第一个单词but， but that是一个短语，我觉得在这句子中but that是个副词短语，要不是，除非。句子应该是这个结构 but that.... that...that，每个that后面是一个独立从句，所以没有所谓的整个句子的主语。

但在词典的例句里， but that 是连词的作用。

but 参阅AHD
AHD:[bŭt] [bət] 非重读时
D.J.[bʌt][bət]非重读时
K.K.[bʌt][bət]非重读时
conj.（连接词）

With the exception that; except that. Used to introduce a dependent clause:
若非：除非；除此。用于引导一个独立的从句：
would have resisted but that they lacked courage.
如果不是缺乏勇气她们会抵抗的

新牛津
but that
■(archaic)other than that; except that
(古)若非
who knows but that the pictures painted on air are eternal.
谁能说空中描绘的东西不能是永恒的呢？。

韦氏国际
1.
a. : except for the fact — used to introduce a dependent clause
  < he would have protested but that he was afraid >
b. : that — sometimes used more or less tautologically with that: used after negatives
  < there is no doubt but he was killed in the wreck >
  < he did not question but that he would win >
  < it is 10 to 1 but the challenger will lose >
