Summary/Abstract: This paper aims at highlighting the specific differences of terms which are frequently considered to be synonyms. Knowledge, the genus, is the resultant of human existence filtered by physical and sensory, individual and collective experience. Wisdom, the differentia, is a synthesis, an individual or collective projection granting coherence to the knowledge accumulated. Thus, like any vector, wisdom is the existential element that provides direction, meaning and dimension to the human being.
