revived (spec. come back to life) adj.: redivivus
[This is a postpositive adjective, meaning that it follows the word being modified (“food plenty,” “bargains galore”). It is typically used figuratively to refer to a person who has made a comeback after being counted out or who has exhibited traits reminiscent of some other person, as in the example given. It can also be applied to places or things.] Midnight of the evening before Colonel North testifies. . . . I am perplexed and frightened. I am perplexed because I can’t guess what course he will take in his testifying. . . . Will he brazen everything out, tell nothing and play Gordon Liddy redivivus? Will he show contrition and make an honest reporting of the whole affair? (James Michener, “Through Michener’s Eyes,” Washington Post, 7/10/1987.)
