Summary/Abstract: This study presents the premises which were the basis of tne literary movement, named symbolism. The symbolic school proposes changing the strategy. Aesthetics ceases to be the democratic result of the general taste, dropped into mediocrity, and becomes a discreet edifice, to which the vast and banal immense crowds are free to aspire. Poetry becomes an instrument of knowledge and the poetic discourse is renewed, through suggestion, hint and nuance, to give other meanings to the depth of reality. The symbolist writer is a magician who must build that edifice infinitely open, without edges, to allow conscience to decipher the enigmas of men and the universe
