From the two questions present in the title of this text, we understand, answering to the first question, that what identifies Ethics and Aesthetics is language’s polysemic grounding, in contraposition to science’s monosemic language. Therefore, going to the second question, still taking language into account, we were able to find a Modern and Postmodern interpretation as well as ways for Education to be inserted therein. Trying to overcome a monosemic point of view on Education, we started thinking on the possibilities of what we can call academic polysemy.
