One who employs symbols.

A symbolist poet or artist.

The symbolists had not all an explicit philosophy; but they were all aware of potencies in the world or in themselves which language cannot articulately express, and which are yet more vitally real than the 'facts' which we can grasp and handle, and the 'respectable' people whom we can measure and reckon with.

A proponent of symbolic artificial intelligence.

At the helm of the symbolists was [Frank] Rosenblatt’s nemesis, MIT professor Marvin Minsky.
