Genesis 219 So out of the ground the Lord God formed every
animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to
the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called
every living creature, that was its name. 20 The man gave names to
all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every animal of the
field; but for the man there was not found a helper as his
partner.

In "The Analystical Language of John Wilkins," Jorge Luis Borges
describes a mythical Chinese encyclopedia, the Celestial Emporium
of Benevolent Knowledge, that divides all plants and animals into
fourteen wonderful, fanciful categories as a means to refute ...
those, like Wilkins, who had long sought to produce a universal
language.
