1. A philosopher who selects from various systems such opinions and principles as he judges to be sound and rational; originally one who, having no system of his own, selected from Plato and Aristotle; eventually a Platonizing Christian; in modern times, one who, recognizing an element of truth in all systems, collects a new and fuller one out of the whole.

2. Selecting; choosing out and adopting from the views of others what seems good.
