English term or phrase: culture as "depicted" or received
¡Hola amigos prozianos!
Estoy traduciendo un texto sobre la cultura de la discapacidad y tengo dos dudas (bueno, varias, pero son dos las que voy a plantear aquí).
La primera es el "depicted" que figura en la pregunta.
El contexto:
More recent historical analyses of the development of culture as a concept reject descriptive and categorical notions of CULTURE AS DEPICTED OR RECEIVED, and instead develop definitions of culture as an enacted dynamic process...

Any ideas???
Lo de la cultura como algo recibido o algo heredado lo entiendo, lo que me está complicando la traducción es el DEPICTED.

Gracias!!!
