Sumario:This paper aims at analyzing the plurality of realities of worlds of knowledge in Karl Popper. In the first section, we have chosen to analyze the object studied respecting the chronological order of the Popperian publications, bearing in mind the verification of the development of the three worlds thesis in Popper. The author rejects both monistic and dualistic positions and hence proposes a notion of a tripartite reality, claiming that reality is made up by the interaction among three worlds: World 1, of physical objects and material states; World 2, of states of consciousness or mental states or, maybe, of behavioral willingness to act, the world of subjective knowledge; and World 3, of objective autonomous knowledge, which doesn't depend on the subject who knows. World 3 is inhabited by problems, critical arguments and theories, as a result of the evolution of human language. It contains the history of our ideas, of how we invent and react to such products of our own elaboration of objective contents of thinking. In the second section, aiming at better understanding the three worlds theory, even though it is metaphysical, we present a connection between this thesis and the Popperian epistemology, known as critical rationalism. For the author, scientific knowledge is fallible, correctable and provisional, thus making criticism assume a crucial role in the development of knowledge. Therefore, as we analyse the thesis of the three worlds inserted in Popperian epistemology, we can better understand some aspects of the theory of the three worlds, as well as how knowledge grows, according to the presuppositions defended by Karl Popper
