I am currently studying the relationship between the bishops of
Tallinn/Reval and the archnishops of Lund. Perhaps Bo Gregersen is
able to answer my question: it is generally held that the bishop of
Tallinn remained the suffragan of Lund even after the Danish king had
sold Northern Estonia to the Theutonic Order but there are no local
sources in Estonia to prove it. Is there a good reference to some
literature or Danish sources to prove this suffragan relationship
(even formal) between
the bishops of Tallinn and Lund from late 14-th century up till the
Reformation? (There is not enough evidence to state that the bishop
of Tallinn was the suffragan of Riga either)
Many thanks in advance,
