revisitation
Going back again
Revisitation is the act of visiting again or returning to something previously experienced.
The word appears most often in formal or literary contexts: a revisitation of childhood memories, the artist's revisitation of earlier themes.
It emphasizes deliberate return rather than casual repetition.
