ARCHANGELO, Ana; CAMPANARO, Claudia Regina  y  VILLELA, Fabio Camargo Bandeira. Chronos, Kairos and the temporality of the pandemic: confrontation between gods and the possibility of the re-invention of setting. J. psicanal. [online]. 2020, vol.53, n.98, pp. 27-40. ISSN 0103-5835.

This article discusses the temporality of our current society, strongly regulated by Chronos, the god who distinguishes day from night and gives stability, but who turns into a sentinel and classifier of the experience of living. It points out how the pandemic has represented a cut in such temporality and provoked, among other effects, the confrontation between the time of Chronos and that of Kairos. It debates how this confrontation is presented as the possibility of contact with the "best moment" of the experience, in which the production of meaning occurs, and how the analytical setting has been impacted by this. It concludes that the reinvention of setting at this moment has as its fundamental axis the state of trust constructed in the experience between patient and analyst, a resource which, by definition, ensures that the fragments remaining after the confrontation can be an object of sharing and restoration in the analytical experience.

Palabras clave : temporality; Chronos and Kairos; pandemic; analytical setting.
