In philosophy, the underworld of philosophy consists of ideas that either violate important canons of reasoning or which are simply so far out and unfamiliar that they are ignored.[1] However the expression is often used poetically to denote other things, such as philosophy as a whole (contrasted to science), dead philosophers in limbo etc.
Compare to unknown knowns.
