Categorization

As far back as the fourth century BCE, Aristotle attempted to

classify all knowledge into ten broad themes. In the sixteenth century, English philosopher Francis Bacon argued that all human knowledge could be sorted into just three categories: memory, reason, and imagination. In the twentieth century, the Indian librarian Shiyali Ramamrita Ranganathan proposed classifying knowledge by personality, matter, energy, space, and time.
