ectype

1. (architecture) An object in relievo or embossed.

2. (philosophy) A copy, reproduction; especially as contrasted with the original, archetype, or prototype.Examples: "If my account is correct, both archetypes and ectypes are 'real' insofar as they are composed of ideas of sensation. But I draw a distinction that Johnson does not acknowledge, viz., a distinction between ontological and epistemic ectypes."; "The painting traces itself from itself by suddenly appearing in these ectypes. But the ectypes only mark the final accomplishment of this sudden appearance."; "It is likely that little attention has been paid to the archetype/ectype relationship in Kant scholarship in the English speaking world partly as a result of inconsistent translations of the German terms “Urbild” and “Nachbild” that make it difficult to even notice the relationship."
