Julia the Younger (Classical Latin: IVLIA•MINOR〔 (edd.), ''Prosopographia Imperii Romani saeculi I, II et III'' (''PIR''), Berlin, 1933 - I 635〕) or Julilla (little Julia), Vipsania Julia Agrippina, Iulilla, Julia, Augustus' granddaughter, or Julia Caesaris Minor (19 BC – c. AD 29), was a Roman noblewoman of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. She was the first daughter and second child of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa and Julia the Elder. Along with her sister Agrippina the Elder, Julia was raised and educated by her maternal grandfather Augustus and her maternal step-grandmother Livia Drusilla. Julia the Younger was the elder granddaughter of the Emperor Augustus, sister-in-law, stepdaughter and daughter-in-law of the Emperor Tiberius, maternal aunt of the Emperor Caligula and Empress Agrippina the Younger, second cousin of the Emperor Claudius, and maternal great-aunt of the Emperor Nero. ==Life== About 5 BC or 6 BC, Augustus arranged her to marry Lucius Aemilius Paullus.〔Suetonius, ''The Twelve Caesars'', "II. Augustus", LXIV〕 Paullus had a family relation to her as her first half-cousin, as both had Scribonia as grandmother: Julia's mother was a daughter of Scribonia by Augustus; Paullus' mother, Cornelia Scipio, was a daughter of Scribonia resulting from her earlier marriage to Publius Cornelius Scipio Salvito. Paullus and Julia had a daughter, Aemilia Lepida and possibly a son, Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (although the latter may also have been the son to Marcus Aemilius Lepidus (consul 6). According to Suetonius, she built a large pretentious country house. Augustus disliked large overdone houses and had it demolished.〔Suetonius, ''The Twelve Caesars'', "II. Augustus", LXXII〕 In 8, according to ancient historians, Julia was exiled for having an affair with Decimus Junius Silanus, a Roman Senator. She was sent to Trimerus, a small Italian island, where she gave birth to a child. Augustus rejected the infant and ordered it to be exposed,〔Suetonius, ''The Twelve Caesars'', "II. Augustus", LXV〕 or left on a mountainside to die. Silanus went into voluntary exile, but returned under Tiberius' reign.〔Tacitus, ''Ann.'' III, 24〕 Sometime between 1 and 14, her husband Paullus was executed as a conspirator in a revolt.〔Suetonius, ''The Lives of Caesars'', Life of Augustus 19〕 Modern historians theorize that Julia's exile was not actually for adultery but for involvement in Paullus' revolt.〔Norwood, Frances, "The Riddle of Ovid's Relegatio" ''Classical Philology'' (1963) p. 154〕 Livia plotted against her stepdaughter's family and ruined them, according to some. This led to open compassion for the fallen family. In 29 AD, Julia died on the same island where she had been sent in exile twenty years earlier.〔Tacitus, ''Ann.'' IV, 71〕 Due to the adultery that Julia committed, Augustus stated in his will that she would never be buried in Rome.〔Suetonius, ''The Twelve Caesars'', "II. Augustus", CI〕 She was survived by a daughter, possibly a son, and by several grandchildren. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julia the Younger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
