theoretician

/ˌθiɝəˈtɪʃən/ noun

Someone who is expert in the theory of a particular science or art.

Word Origin Theoretician is built on theory (from Greek 'thea' 'viewing' + 'horān' 'to see') with the agent suffix -ician, meaning 'one who deals with theory.' So a theoretician is a professional viewer of ideas. The same roots give us theater and panorama (all-seeing).
