The author examines the complex interactions between the Lutheran reformation, the ruling Swedish elite, and the native Estonian peasantry, shedding light on the interplay of religion, politics, and social change. The text offers insights into the often-overlooked Estonian Reformation, the political reorganization under Swedish rule, and the everyday lives of the peasantry.
