ABSTRACT
This article seeks to survey the meanings that the word "aesthetics" acquires combined with the training of teachers in Brazilian educational researches. To compose the philosophical landscape which gives this text its outline, we resort to authors such as Foucault and Nietzsche, in addition to Hermann, Frigério, and Pereira, whose writings expand the perspectives allied to aesthetics and training. At first, we present analyses of the survey carried out around researches which combine aesthetic training and teaching, from the theses bank of Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) from 2006 to 2010, in order to grasp the emergence of discussions and authors facing the indeterminacy that it is a kind of training combined with an aesthetic dimension. The last part of the text, we try and give a clearer outline to experiments on training in this context, not only restricted to teachers involved with the artistic field, claiming the urgency that the ideas about aesthetic training contemplates contemporary art productions.
