Original Abstract

The theme is end of styles. Using the notion revival in the style debate (Gothic Revival, etc.) seems to be an expression of the persuasion, that a style (Gothic) finished or died in one moment, then it did not exist for a certain period, and after that occurred again, revived. But is this construct correct?
