[1] From the mid-15th century the Warmia Chapter presented every bishop elect with election capitulations (the articuli iurati) for him to sign. These obligated the bishop to defend the rights and privileges of the Church in Warmia and to recognize that the Chapter and the bishop were partnersin managing the diocese. The capitulations also concerned more detailed issues of finances and jurisdiction. (cf. cf. BORAWSKA 1984 p. 75, 76, 209 ⌊Borawska, 1984, p. 75, 76, 209cf. BORAWSKA 1984 p. 75, 76, 209 ⌋ (also further references there), and also Articuli iurati Episcopi Ioannis Dantiscus (copy from the 16th/17th century, AAWO, Dok. Kap. A4/36).
