Topus Uranus

Topus Uranus

"Topus Uranus" is the term Plato used to refer to his "world of ideas" where reality, according to him, is found. [Artigas, Mariano. "Metafisica". EUNSA.] Plato argued that reality is not contained in the material world but outside of it, precisely in the world of ideas. The material world is simply a reflection of what is in the world of ideas, as he talked about in the famous Allegory of the Cave. [Plato. "Dialogues"]
