Juliana of Nicomedia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Juliana of Nicomedia
Saint Juliana of Nicomedia is said to have suffered Christian martyrdom during the Diocletian persecution in 304. She was popular in the Middle Ages, especially in the Netherlands, as the patron saint of sickness. ==Historical background== Both the Latin and Greek Churches mention a holy martyr Juliana in their lists of saints. The oldest historical notice of her is found in the ''Martyrologium Hieronymianum'' for 16 February, her place of birth being given as Cumae in Campania (''"In Campania Cumbas, natale Julianae"'').〔( Kirsch, Johann Peter. "St. Juliana." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 8. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1910. 7 Feb. 2013 )〕 It is true that the reference is contained only in the single chief manuscript of the above-named martyrology (the ''Codex Epternacensis''). It is nevertheless clear that the notice is certainly authentic, from a letter of Saint Gregory the Great, which testifies to the special veneration of Saint Juliana in the neighbourhood of Naples. A pious matron named Januaria built a church on one of her estates, for the consecration of which she desired relics (''sanctuaria'', that is to say, objects which had been brought into contact with the graves) of Saints Severinus and Juliana. Gregory wrote to Fortunatus II, Bishop of Naples, telling him to accede to the wishes of Januaria.〔〔''"Gregorii Magni epist.", lib. IX, ep. ####"'', in J. P. Migne's ''Patrologia Latina'', LXXXVII, 1015.〕
