The terms philosophus and philosophiawere first employed by Pythagoras (in Cicero’s Tusculan Disputations) and roughly meant to Pythogoras as the pursuit of wisdom. The term philosophy then in turn changed to signify wisdom and the love of it, which was seen as the highest kind of knowledge. There are various kinds of knowledge, for example knowledge we gain via our everyday experience of reality for example historical, literary, knowledge about the physical world, knowledge about art etc. There are also other forms of knowledge that we gain by making use of our intellect and capability to reason in order to classify, analyze, and interpret etc. the knowledge we gain from everyday experience.
