- Celestial_Emporium_of_Benevolent_Knowledge abstract "Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge (Spanish: Emporio celestial de conocimientos benévolos) is a fictitious taxonomy of animals described by the writer Jorge Luis Borges in his 1942 essay \"The Analytical Language of John Wilkins\" (El idioma analítico de John Wilkins).Wilkins, a 17th-century philosopher, had proposed a universal language based on a classification system that would encode a description of the thing a word describes into the word itself—for example, Zi identifies the genus beasts; Zit denotes the \"difference\" rapacious beasts of the dog kind; and finally Zitα specifies dog.In response to this proposal and in order to illustrate the arbitrariness and cultural specificity of any attempt to categorize the world, Borges describes this example of an alternate taxonomy, supposedly taken from an ancient Chinese encyclopædia entitled Celestial Emporium of Benevolent Knowledge.The list divides all animals into one of 14 categories: Those that belong to the emperor Embalmed ones Those that are trained Sucking pigs Mermaids (or Sirens) Fabulous ones Stray dogs Those that are included in this classification Those that tremble as if they were mad Innumerable ones Those drawn with a very fine camel hair brush Et cetera Those that have just broken the flower vase Those that, at a distance, resemble fliesBorges claims that the list was discovered in its Chinese source by the translator Franz Kuhn.".
