Morning Star rebellion Morgonstjärneupproret
rdfs:comment
The Morning Star rebellion (Swedish: Morgonstjärneupproret) was a peasant rebellion which took place in the Swedish province of Närke in 1653. It was called "Morning Star rebellion" because of the mace, commonly called "morning star", which was used by the leader of the rebels as a royal scepter. Morgonstjärneupproret var ett uppror som ägde rum 1653 i Närke. Ett 15-tal torpare i Närke gjorde uppror mot soldatutskrivningar och hårda skatter och den rådande missväxten. Upproret slogs snabbt ner och var en av många missnöjesyttringar vid denna tid. Flera av ledarna för upproret avrättades, däribland Olof och Nils Mårtensson som fördes till Stockholm för att levande rådbråkas på två olika torg. Den ena av dem straffades med att en glödande krona av järn pressades på huvudet; därefter krossades den dömdes armar, ben och ryggrad med den spikklubba ("morgonstjärna") han hade använt som spira.

Morgonstjärneupproret var ett uppror som ägde rum 1653 i Närke. Ett 15-tal torpare i Närke gjorde uppror mot soldatutskrivningar och hårda skatter och den rådande missväxten. Upproret slogs snabbt ner och var en av många missnöjesyttringar vid denna tid. Flera av ledarna för upproret avrättades, däribland Olof och Nils Mårtensson som fördes till Stockholm för att levande rådbråkas på två olika torg. Den ena av dem straffades med att en glödande krona av järn pressades på huvudet; därefter krossades den dömdes armar, ben och ryggrad med den spikklubba ("morgonstjärna") han hade använt som spira. Två brev daterade den 31 mars och 6 april 1653 av Johan Ekeblad, hovjunkare hos drottning Kristina som bevittnade detta "gruvliga spektakel" är bevarade fram till idag. Speciellt med detta uppror är, att föreställningen om dess betydelse ökade på 1800-talet. Flera historiker målade då upp händelsen, som ett försök av 100-tals bönder att störta drottning Kristina. Denna historieskrivning har fortlevt in på 2000-talet. The Morning Star rebellion (Swedish: Morgonstjärneupproret) was a peasant rebellion which took place in the Swedish province of Närke in 1653. It was called "Morning Star rebellion" because of the mace, commonly called "morning star", which was used by the leader of the rebels as a royal scepter. The situation in Sweden had been a bit tense in the countryside in 1650, when the peasantry had protested and boycotted the law that required those living on the land of a noble family to serve in their land, protests which were however successful, as Queen Christina had this duty limited by law. Nonetheless, it created some tension. The rebellion started in Närke in February 1653 as a protest against prescriptions of soldiers and hard taxation during a famine. Messengers calling for rebellion were passed among the peasantry and the rebels armed themselves and elected their leader as king and a maid as queen in the "Peasant Kingdom" they aspired to create. The majority of the rebels belonged to the poorest part of the peasantry, such as and Forest Finns rather than regular farmers. Under the leadership of a former soldier, the rebels traveled around requiting more peasant soldiers from adjoining parishes with the plan to eventually spread through the nation. A noblewoman who traveled through the area wrote to her son that a member of the peasantry estate in the Riksdag of the Estates had told some of her staff: "What the peasants had in mind, that they wished to kill the nobility. Which is why I ask in the name of the death God has suffered, not to show yourself there... I do not know how I will travel up there, because they say they are as crazy in Småland..." However, the rebels did not manage to secure support from the majority of the peasantry and find recruits sufficient to stand against the royal army commanded against them by Queen Christina. The wealthier farmers refused to join, and many of the men who were requited only did so because they were threatened. The rebel army mainly traveled around in fruitless attempts to secure support and make recruits, and when the royal troops arrived, they initially managed to avoid them. Without support from the population, the rebels could not defeat the army and were soon betrayed and captured by the royal troops. Some rebels, notably Anders Månsson i Holmen and Henrik Matsson i Gryten, were killed on the spot. The "king" and the military commander of the rebels, Olof Mårtensson and Nils Mårtensson, were taken to the capital of Stockholm and executed by breaking wheel in April 1653. The leader posing as a monarch had a crown of heated iron pressed over his head and his arms, legs and spin crushed by the mace he used as a scepter.
