1. Apart from mathematical divisions (centuries, millenniums) and the prehistoric tool and site names with their numbered stages, period names have been of three kinds: political-dynastic, cultural, and aesthetic. Examples of the first are Carolingian, Ottonian, Tudor; of the second, Mediaeval, Renaissance; of the third, Romanesque, Classic, Mannerist, Baroque. Each type of name originally implied a theory about the art it designated. The aesthetic names are more common, but the others survive, often with changed sense. We no longer accept the original meanings of Romanesque and Gothic, but we continue to use these period names as conventions with new historical boundaries
