The symbolism is a French movement(XIXe century) of people (in particular writers, poets,...) who want to express herself thanks to symbols and not explicitly. But symbolism is at first a way to express oneself secretly or not. Every cultures has used and use again symbols, actualy especially in publicities.
Symbolism is often considered like a secret language, and it's what attract many people, but I'll speak about all kind of symbolism; heraldic, masonic, ancient,...
Humans had always been using symbol, since prehistory, for example picture on grottos.
