Italian term

segue il moto ondoso delle avanguardie e dei ritorni all'ordine

Italian to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
"I generi letterari rappresentano uno dei grandi dibattiti del Novecento. La loro identità, affermata o negata, segue con puntuale cadenza il moto ondoso delle avanguardie e dei ritorni all’ordine".
Questa è la mia traduzione (ma non mi piace):"...marks the rhythm of the wave motion between avant-gardes and returns to order"; qualche suggerimento?
