This paper following a geometric approach proves new, and reproves old, vanishing and nonvanishing results on the space of twisted symmetric differentials, $H^0(X,S^m\Omega^1_X\otimes \Cal O_X(k))$ with $k\le m$, on subvarieties $X\subset \Bbb P^N$. The case of $k=m$ is special and the nonvanishing results are related to the space of quadrics containing $X$ and lead to interesting geometrical objects associated to $X$, as for example the variety of all tangent trisecant lines of $X$. The same techniques give results on the symmetric differentials of subvarieties of abelian varieties. The paper ends with new results and examples about the jump along smooth families of projective varieties $X_t$ of the symmetric plurigenera, $Q_m(X)= \dim H^0(X,S^m\Omega^1_X)$, or of the $\alpha$-twisted symmetric plurigenera, $Q_{\alpha,m}(X)= \dim H^0(X,S^m(\Omega^1_X\otimes \alpha K_X))$.
