Gerdeka Hartlevsdotter, or Hartlefsdotter, also called Gerdica (1370-1438), was a Swedish Bridgettine nun. She was the abbess of Vadstena Abbey from 1403 until 1422. LifeGerdeka Hartlevsdotter was the daughter of Hartlev Bolk (d.1390) and Ingeborg (d. 1400) from Skänninge. Her mother became a member of Vadstena Abbey as a widow, and Gerdeka when abbess had her father reburied in the abbey graveyard, when it became allowed for non-members of the order to be buried there. Gerdeka was elected abbess in 1403, after the deposition of her predecessor Ingegerd Knutsdotter. Her reign has been described as a golden age for the abbey. In 1406, she received a delegation from England headed by Henry FitzHugh, 3rd Baron FitzHugh for the purpose of creating a daughter-abbey of the Bridgettine order in England. In 1415, she completed the negotiations, and at the wish of the English King sent the nuns Anna Karlsdotter, Christina Finwitsdotter, Christina Esbjörnsdotter and Anna Esbjörnsdotter to England with great festivities, escorted by all the bishops of Sweden as well as the archbishop, and a Bbishop from Norway, as well as several ambassadors, to found Syon Abbey in England. In 1419, Vadstena was subjected to an investigation after rumors that not only the abbess Gerdica but also the nuns had received male guests in private and accepted gifts from them.[1] Gerdeka resigned from her position for health reasons on 27 April 1422.
