About This Item

santorini

TESSA is afgeleid van THERESIA

Betekenis
Herkomst niet zeker; verschillende mogelijkheden worden geopperd:
1] hangt samen met het Griekse woord 'theros' = 'warmte', 'zomer', 'oogst';
Dus: 'oogsteres' (ook: 'vrouw die warmte geeft'? lijkt nogal ingegeven door 20e eeuw
cultuur; immers het begrip 'warm-menselijk' was tot aan de jaren '60 van de
20e eeuw onbekend);
2] hangt samen met het Griekse woord 'thèraein' = 'jagen'; dus: 'jageres';
3] hangt samen met het Griekse eiland Thera, thans Thira of Santorin geheten; dus:
'Vrouw van Thera'. Voor deze betekenis pleit het feit dat één van de eerste vrouwen
die naar bekend deze naam droeg, Therasia heette: zij was de vrouw van de H.
Paulinus van Nola, en van Spaanse afkomst; 5e eeuw. Vandaar dat deze naam vooral
op het Iberisch schiereiland van oudsher een grote verspreiding kende.


TESSA is derived from THERESA

Meaning
Origin is not sure; different possibilities are suggested:
1] hangs together with the Greek word ' theros ' = ' heat ', ' summer ', ' harvest ';
So: ' harvester ' (also: ' woman who gives warmth? "seems to be motivated by the notion of the 20e century culture; the concept of ‘warmth-human ' was to the 60s of the 20th century unknown);
2] hangs together with the Greek word ' thèraein ' = ' hunt '; so: ' Huntress ';
3] depends on the Greek island of Thera, now known as Thira or Santorin; so: ' Woman of Thera '. For this meaning, the fact that one of the first women who bore this name, was known to Therasia: she was the wife of St. Paulinus of Nola, and of Spanish descent; 5th century. That is why this name especially on the Iberian Peninsula has traditionally been a large expansion.
