About the erudite royal critic.

In 2023, it will be 500 years since Gustav Vasa took possession of the royal throne of the Swedish kingdom. In the coming decades, he had to fight against a long line of internal and external enemies. He defeated them all and in retrospect appears to be successful - as you know, history is written by the victor!

However, in this lecture series, we focus on Gustav Vasa's opponents and concentrate on the history of the losers. They are all found here - from Christian II to the Catholic Church and the rebel leader Nils Dacke.

The broadcast starts at the appointed time. The lecture may start a little later.
