REPRESENTATION
If something stands in place of or is chosen to substitute for something else, the former is considered a representation of the latter. E.g., representation of constituencies in government, linguistic representation of an event see symbol). The belief that all knowledge is a representation of the properties of the real world is as unacceptable as the insistence that all descriptions or messages are about something else. (Krippendorff)
