Summary | "Mäster Olofs bröllop" by C. Georg Starbäck is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set in 1524, the book delves into the tumultuous political and religious landscape of Sweden during the time of King Gustaf Vasa's reign. The narrative primarily focuses on the character of Olof Pedersson, a Lutheran reformer, as he navigates the challenges posed by radical religious factions and the societal upheaval of the period. The opening of the novel sets the stage in Stockholm, where the city has recently recovered from a devastating siege. With the backdrop of religious fervor and social conflict, it introduces various characters, including Olof Pedersson, who delivers a compelling sermon that attracts both supporters and adversaries. As raucous mobs disrupt his preaching, the tension escalates, reflecting the societal fractures of the time, particularly concerning the emerging Anabaptist movement. Among the crowd, we meet Christina, a young woman who is drawn to Olof, foreshadowing complex personal and ideological entanglements amid the chaos of rebellion and reform in the historical setting.
