symbolism. n. 1. the representation of something in symbolic form or the attribution of symbolic meaning or character to something. 2. a system of symbols or symbolic representation. 3. a symbolic significance or quality.
The term symbolism is derived from the word symbol which derives from the Latin symbolum, a symbol of faith, and symbolus, a sign of recognition, in turn from classical Greek ÏÏÎ¼Î²ÏÎ»Î¿Î½ symbolon, an object cut in half constituting a sign of recognition when the carriers were able to reassemble the two halves.ussian symbolism, steeped in the Eastern Orthodoxy and the religious doctrines of Vladimir Solovyov, had little in common with the French style of the same name. It began the careers of several major poets such as Alexander Blok, Andrei Bely, and Marina Tsvetaeva.
