This paper presents, in a general way, the concept of mediation and its importance for the comprehension of communication and language, as well as its importance in the pedagogical context. First, there is a short historical description about the concept of mediation in the philosophy tradition. After, some considerations of mediation from the point of view of communication and language and the phenomenological proposal of language of Merleau-Ponty are presented. Finally, the relationship between the reflections made and some considerations about the pedagogical field are shown.

Keywords : Communication; language; mediations; pedagogy.
