Topics are used to refer to details that are defined in a certain context. In contrast to concepts and terms that are more abstract topics describe details as part of a whole. While "Person" defines a concept, "Anton Miller" would be described as a detail. Thus, topics usually describe concrete things (concrete is always relative to the concepts the detail belongs to).
