An Encyclopaedia on Chinese History and Literature
Books on Miscellaneous Issues (zajia lei 雜家類) is a subcategory in traditional Chinese bibliographies and part of the category of Masters and Philosophers (zibu 子部). This section includes books of a wide thematic range that can not be attributed to other categories. The origin of this category comes from so-called miscellaneous thinkers uniting Confucian, Mohist and legalist thought./p>
The compilers of the series Siku quanshu 四庫全書 splitted this section up into six divisions: The miscellaneous teachings (zaxue 雜學, 22 books) are philosophical treatises brining forward scholarly arguments (li shuo 立說), like the Mozi 墨子, Gongsun Longzi 公孫龍子, Lüshu chunqiu 呂氏春秋, Huainanzi 淮南子, Renwuzhi 人物志 or Yanshi jiaxun 顏氏家訓.
The miscellaneous investigations (zakao 雜考, 57 books) are book doing differentiated research (bianzheng 辨證) on various themes, like the Baihutong 白虎通, Kunxue jiwen 困學記聞 or Rizhilu 日知錄.
The miscellaneous explanations (zashuo 雜說, 86 books) are systematic collections on a wide range of themes that are described and discussed (yi lun 議論, xushu 敍述) in a scholarly and scientific way, like the Lunheng 論衡 or Mengxi bitan 夢溪筆談.
The miscellaneous classifications (zapin 雜品, 11 books) include a lot of heterogeneous themes which are discussed and investigated (pang jiu wu li 旁究物理) in a very unsystematic but detailed way (lu chen xian suo 臚陳纖瑣).
The miscellaneous compositions (zazuan 雜纂, 11 books) are books thematically compiled on the base of older texts (lei ji jiu wen 類輯舊文), as a kind of anthology (tu jian zhong gui 塗兼眾軌).
The miscellaneous compilations (zabian 雜編, 3 books) includes stories with heterogenous origin (he ke zhu shu 合刻諸書) and parts that have no coherence (bu ming yi ti 不名一體). The miscellaneous treatises section in the Siku quanshu includes 190 books.
