Webster's 1913 Dictionary

EMBLEM

Em "blem, n. Etym: [F. emblème, L. emblema, -atis, that which is put in or on, inlaid work, fr. Gr. In, and Parable. ]

 

1. Inlay; inlaid or mosaic work; something ornamental inserted in a surface. [Obs. ] Milton.

 

2. A visible sign of an idea; an object, or the figure of an object, symbolizing and suggesting another object, or an idea, by natural aptness or by association; a figurative representation; a typical designation; a symbol; as, a balance is an emblem of justice; a scepter, the emblem of sovereignty or power; a circle, the emblem of eternity. "His cicatrice, an emblem of war, here on his sinister cheek. " Shak.

 

3. A picture accompanied with a motto, a set of verse, or the like, intended as a moral lesson or meditation.

 

Note: Writers and artists of the 17th century gave much attention and study to the composition of such emblems, and many collections of them were published.

 

Syn. -- Sign; symbol; type; device; signal; token. -- Sign, Emblem, Symbol, Type. Sign is the generic word comprehending all significant representations. An emblem is a visible object representing another by a natural suggestion of characteristic qualities, or an habitual and recognized association; as, a circle, having no apparent beginning or end, is an emblem of eternity; a particular flag is the emblem of the country or ship which has adopted it for a sign and with which it is habitually associated. Between emblem and symbol the distinction is slight, and often one may be substituted for the other without impropriety. See Symbol. Thus, a circle is either an emblem or a symbol of eternity; a scepter, either an emblem or a symbol of authority; a lamb, either an emblem or a symbol of meekness. "An emblem is always of something simple; a symbol may be of something complex, as of a transaction. .. In consequence we do not speak of actions emblematic. " C. J. Smith. A type is a representative example, or model, exhibiting the qualities common to all individuals of the class to which it belongs; as, the Monitor is a type of a class of war vessels.

American Oxford Thesaurus

emblem

emblem noun the national emblem is a carved Irish shamrock: symbol, representation, token, image, figure, mark, sign; crest, badge, device, insignia, stamp, seal, heraldic device, coat of arms, shield; logo, trademark, brand. CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD emblem, attribute, image, sign, symbol, token, type When it comes to representing or embodying the invisible or intangible, you can't beat a symbol. It applies to anything that serves as an outward sign of something immaterial or spiritual (the cross as a symbol of salvation; the crown as a symbol of monarchy ), although the association between the symbol and what it represents does not have to be based on tradition or convention and may, in fact, be quite arbitrary (the annual gathering at the cemetery became a symbol of the family's long and tragic history ). An emblem is a visual symbol or pictorial device that represents the character or history of a family, a nation, or an office (the eagle is an emblem of the United States ). It is very close in meaning to attribute, which is an object that is conventionally associated with either an individual, a group, or an abstraction (the spiked wheel as an attribute of St. Catherine; the scales as an attribute of Justice ). An image is also a visual representation or embodiment, but in a much broader sense (veins popping, he was the image of the angry father ). Sign is often used in place of symbol to refer to a simple representation of an agreed-upon meaning (the upraised fist as a sign of victory; the white flag as a sign of surrender ), but a symbol usually embodies a wider range of meanings, while a sign can be any object, event, or gesture from which information can be deduced (her faltering voice was a sign of her nervousness ). A token, on the other hand, is something offered as a symbol or reminder (he gave her his class ring as a token of his devotion ) and a type, particularly in a religious context, is a symbol or representation of something not present (Jerusalem as the type of heaven; the paschal lamb as the type of Christ ).These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.
