F inal C onsiderations When listing the proscenium of approaches mentioned above, it is understood that the movements of the Earth, transporting humanity at 107,000 km/h through the cyclical path called time, in the middle of a synchronous cosmic traffic, have always fascinated the curiosity of all generations. This relationship of man with time possibly stems from the realization that time is an inexorable chain of unbreakable chains in the face of the finitude of all things. The recognition of the importance of the name to portray/disrupt, reinforce/neutralize, establish and/or annihilate ideologies, social customs, worldview, ways of thinking, admiring, reputing and judging, individual and/or collective, results in the constant struggle for supremacy in style to perpetuate. The inlays and fossilizations of entropic elements of this dismantling can bring a new meaning to the affected chrononyms, in a way, burying, obliterating, or even falsifying their original descriptive properties, sometimes enveloped in their etymology, and can interfere with identity, culture, or awareness of social groups. It can be seen between the lines of history that the establishment of holidays, and the manipulation of time by means of their chrononyms are an action of power or pretension to power, so that the ideological force embedded in time is used to validate this exercise, demarcating, in the temporal dimension, a territory destined to the erection of monuments that give prestige to the power. However, incrustations and ideological alterations of the chrononyms are likely to bring incompatibilities, as seen, in the calculation of agricultural, economic, social and mental cycles. Lipp (2001) associates stress disease with mental health. According to Tanure, Neto, Santos & Patrus (2014, p. 1), a mistaken perception of time causes stress, a disease of time, which destroys the individual's quality of life, taking away from him the adequate time to carry out his responsibilities and develop his affective relationships. These psychic disorders seem to stem from the Oddball effect, which reports a different perception of the passage of time, according to the circumstance of pleasure or pain in which an individual is subjected. That is, a three-day stay at a luxurious resort on a paradise tropical beach spends more than half an hour on a painful medical procedure. Chronological changes change the perception of spatial and temporal reality. Different concepts, coming from different perspectives, do different things. Although fossilized vestigial marks of primeval meaning are present in many chrononyms, the redenomination of time changes the reading of space, place and time itself. Chrononymy, or way of naming time, seems to reveal the kinetic-astral, spatial-environmental, metaphorical, and also religious conception of the nominator, in his quest to grant time an identity that reflects his worldview. However, from a critical point of view, one should take into account the instilling character of ideologies as the nominator's aspiration to perpetuate it in the future, in addition to being one of the socially engineered instruments for the establishment, sanction, reinforcement and perpetuation of the practice of power, because in the establishment of holidays, deliberations about when to work, when to rest, when to trade and what to trade from time to time is a presupposition of the action of power. It is evident that the study of Chrononymy can not only unveil the remaining vestiges of the denominator's intentions and pretensions in the time name changes carried out during history, but also point out that society's temporal coding has been associated with the developed techniques for social control and management mentioned by Foucault (1979/2008), since “human behavior is a symbolic action”, and “the importance of culture, also focuses on what is being transmitted with its occurrence (GEERTZ, 1989, p. 20). It is curious to note that on December 31, 2019, a new agent of the Corona virus was discovered causing a disease called COVID-19, and is characterized by respiratory infections. This new mutation of the Corona virus, and its main epidemic focus, occurred in the city of Wuhan - China. Due to its rapid transmission, not only from animal to human, but from human to human, the whole world recorded an overwhelming number of cases and, to the detriment of this situation, the WHO - World Health Organization - considered it a worldwide pandemic, which has brought chaos to health services in all countries. In an attempt to contain the spread of the pandemic, governments have decreed the confinement of their citizens. In countries most seriously affected by the disease, such as Italy and the United States, it has become a crime to leave home. A quarantine or holiday with no end date had been enacted. Tourist spots, highways, museums, concert halls, shopping centers, and other places of commercial activities, had become deserts. In just 15 days after this confinement, despite the outbreak still being contained, some data on environmental improvement are evident. For example, air and water pollution levels in large cities have dropped dramatically. Could it be possible to give rise to the thought that, for a good cause, even if freedom is suppressed, the ends would justify the means? In this way, could a deliberation on the establishment of a new model of working hours or fixed breaks pause to start sculpting in the speeches and ideological impregnations, an image of power in time?
