==Nostalgia cycle== It has been argued that there is a nostalgia cycle. Various durations of this cycle have been alleged, including epicycles (ie nostalgia for the last nostalgia cycle).<ref name=Slate17April2012>[https://slate.com/culture/2012/04/the-golden-forty-year-rule-and-other-nostalgia-cycles-could-trends-possibly-return-every-40-years-20-years-and-12-15-years.html The 20-Year Nostalgia Cycle—or Is It 40 Years? 15?].
