In its most general sense, the term ‘world’ refers to the totality of entities, to the whole of reality or to everything that is. The nature of the world has been conceptualized differently in different fields. Some conceptions see the world as unique while others talk of a ‘plurality of worlds’. Some treat the world as one simple object while others analyze the world as a complex made up of many parts. In scientific cosmology the world or universe is commonly defined as ’the totality of all space and time; all that is, has been, and will be’. Theories of modality, on the other hand, talk of possible worlds as complete and consistent ways how things could have been. Phenomenology, starting from the horizon of co-given objects present in the periphery of every experience, defines the world as the biggest horizon or the ‘horizon of all horizons’. In philosophy of mind, the world is commonly contrasted with the mind as that which is represented by the mind. Theology conceptualizes the world in relation to God, for example, as God’s creation, as identical to God or as the two being interdependent. In religions, there is often a tendency to downgrade the material or sensory world in favor of a spiritual world to be sought through religious practice. A comprehensive representation of the world and our place in it, as is commonly found in religions, is known as a worldview. Cosmogony is the field that studies the origin or creation of the world while eschatology refers to the science or doctrine of the last things or of the end of the world.

Con il sostantivo mondo si usa designare la totalità della dimensione in cui vivono gli esseri umani, comprendente tutti i suoi abitanti animati e inanimati, inteso anche come il loro luogo primigenio in senso cosmologico e filosofico, distinto dagli altri pianeti ed oggetti materiali o metafisici che costellano l’Universo. Si distingue dal concetto di Terra che ricopre invece il significato di mera entità fisica. In un contesto metafisico, esso può anche fare riferimento a ogni ambito, insieme o sfera globale in sé compiuta, esistente nella realtà o nell’universo. La definizione di mondo nella lingua italiana proviene dall’espressione latina locus mundus nella sua accezione di «luogo pulito, chiaro, visibile» (cioè «mondato»), ovvero quella porzione della Terra, ma anche del cielo, illuminata dalla luce e quindi visibile, identificabile e riconoscibile dall’essere umano. Ma in tale definizione è implicito in aggiunta anche il valore di «ornamento» e di «elegante» inteso come il luogo ordinato dove regna la bellezza, insito anche nel greco kósmos con significato di «ordine, ornamento, bellezza», contrapposto al chàos e che rimanda al pensiero pitagorico ellenistico.

Le mot renvoie à l’appropriation collective d’un espace dédié par une société, sa représentation renvoie à l’évolution des techniques de mesure. Le monde est le plus grand des espaces dans l’échelle des territoires connus. L’histoire du monde s’est construite progressivement et est le fait de découvertes.
