Lü Buwei
Syncretism, or the School of Miscellany () integrated teachings from different schools; for instance, Lü Buwei found scholars from different schools to write a book called "Lüshi Chunqiu" cooperatively. This school tried to integrate the merits of various schools and avoid their perceived flaws. The (c. 330 BC) "Shizi" is the earliest textual example of the Syncretic School.
