Roget's Thesaurus is a widely used English-language thesaurus, created in 1805 by Peter Mark Roget (1779-1869), British physician, natural theologian and lexicographer. It was released to the public on 29 April 1852. Roget was inspired by the Utilitarian teachings of Jeremy Bentham and wished to help "those who are painfully groping their way and struggling with the difficulties of composition...this work processes to hold out a helping hand". The Karpeles Library Museum houses the original manuscript in its collection.

Some of Aristotle's Categories are included in Roget's first class, "abstract relations"
