PAGNI, Pedro Angelo. Dimensão estética, linguagem e comunicação na experiência educativa: divergências entre Dewey e Adorno. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2009, vol.23, n.46, pp.169-187. ISSN 1982-596X.

In this article, we analyze the differences between Dewey's and Adorno's thoughts concerning the aesthetic dimension of the educative experience as well as the language that comprises it and the communication that presupposes it. In the current educational and philosophical debate, the association between instrumental rationality and pragmatism has been contested, aiming to resume the thought of north-American philosophers, like Dewey, in order to deal with issues re1ated to the pragmatics of language and to communicative action. Against this trend, it is considered that also Adorno's thought should be resumed to think about these current problems which involve the educative experience. Thus, together with Adorno, we think about the problem re1ated to the limits of the pragmatics of language and communicative action, postulating the importance of his thought, as much as Dewey's, to face the challenges which emerge from the educative experience nowadays.
