Reproductive fallacy
André Bazin refers to this fallacy as being that the only kind of representation which can show things 'as they really are' is one which is (or appears to be) exactly like that which it represents in every respect. Since texts are almost invariably constructed out of different materials from that which they represent, exact replicas are impossible.
