Katalepsis is a term that originates from ancient Greek philosophy, particularly associated with the Stoics. It refers to the state of having a clear and distinct perception or understanding of an object or concept, often seen as equivalent to true knowledge or certainty. In Stoic thought, katalepsis signifies the moment when an idea or impression is so vivid and compelling that it is taken to be true and is not subject to doubt.
