Kung Karl IX (1550-1611) framstår i historiens ljus som en hänsynslös maktmänniska som gjorde uppror mot både sin bror Erik XIV och den laglige tronarvingen Sigismund, samt avrättade sina politiska motståndare i Linköpings blodbad. En bild som förstärks av Albert Edfelts målning från 1878 där hertig Karl skymfar den döde Clas Fleming genom att dra honom i skägget.Men tittar man närmare på hertig Karl och senare Karl IX:s livsgärning framträder en målmedveten ledare som skapade välstånd genom att utveckla industri och jordbruk. Bakom den hårde maktmänniskan finns också en djupt religiös människa som hade en varm och nära relation till fruar och barn.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledare Urban Lindstedt med historikern och författaren Erik Petersson om Karl IX. Han är aktuell med boken Karl IX – kampen om kronan.Hertig Karl kom att utveckla näringslivet i sitt hertigdöme för att få en stabil maktbas. Det satsades på svavelbruket i Dylta och andra manufakturer. Flera nya städer grundades som Karlstad och Mariestad samtidigt, som Nyköping med dess slott blev hertigdömets centrum. Även nyodling uppmuntrades med skattelättnader svedjande och tjärbrännande finnar lockades till hertigdömets marginalbygder.Hertig Karl var tillsammans med brodern Johan III ledande i upproret mot brodern Erik XIV. Efter Johan III:s död gjorde Karl upprors mot kronarvingen Sigismund. Karl krossades brorsonen Sigismunds strävan att krönas till svensk konung vid slaget vid Stångebro. Efter slaget följde avrättningar av adelsmän som stöttat den katolske Sigismund.I sin kamp om makten lutade sig gärna Karl på bönderna som avskydde högadeln och för allt i världen inte ville bli katoliker. Han initierade Uppsala kyrkomöte 1593 där Sveriges religiösa trosbekännelse på Luthers grund slogs fast. Som kung bestämde han att Mose lag skulle tillämpas i svensk lagstiftning som uttryck för ”Guds klara ord”.Lyssna också på Klubbekriget – det blodiga upproret när Finlands bönder fått nog och Sturemorden som stoppade ätten som hotade Vasaätten.Bild: Hertig Karl, skymfande Klas Flemings lik, målning av Albert Edelfelt från 1878, Finlands nationalgalleri, public domain.Musik: When Bats Fly av Neil Cross, Soundblock Audio Vill du stödja podden och samtidigt höra ännu mer av Historia Nu?

Hela samhällets fortlevnad hotades när bönder började klä sig i blåa kläder och minsta torpare drack kaffe. Men det som egentligen utmanades av de nya konsumtionsmönstren som tog fart på 1700-talet var gestaltandet av ståndssamhället.En framväxande global handel med kolonierna efter upptäckten av Amerika år 1492 gav konsumenterna nya billigare varor som förändrade våra konsumtionsmönster radikalt. I Sverige växte ett konsumtionssamhälle fram under 1700-talet till början av 1800-talet.Det skapade problem i det strikt hierarkiska ståndssamhället där individens position i samhället i allra högsta grad bestämde vad hen skulle konsumera. Därför uppfattades de nya konsumtionsvanorna som ett dödligt hot mot samhället – till och med farligare än digerdöden.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Leif Runefelt, professor i idéhistoria vid Södertörns högskola. Han har bland annat skrivit boken Att hasta mot undergången – Anspråk, flyktighet, förställning i debatten om konsumtion i Sverige 1730-1830.Det svenska ståndssamhället var ett oerhört hierarkiskt samhälle där dina skyldigheter och privilegier bestämdes utifrån vilket stånd du tillhörde. Det var också tydligt hur de olika stånden som adel, borgare, präster och bönder skulle klä sig och vad de skulle konsumera.Därför upplevdes nya konsumtionsmönster, som uppstod i kölvattnet på den framväxande globala kolonialhandeln, som att det hotade samhällets fortbestånd. Billigare varor som bomull, indigo, kaffe och socker gjorde det också möjligt för individer att omförhandla sin samhällsposition.Bönder började klä sig i indigo-blåa kläder när de tidigt alltid varit klädda i grått. Kaffedrickandet spred sig till torpare och bönder. I konsumtionskritiken framträdde individer som sprätthöken, det rangsjuka fruntimret, härmapan, fjollan, snushanden, kaffehusskrävlaren, pigan med bomullsschalarna, modedockan och den känsloförsmäktande sockerherren.Bild: Kafébeslaget från 1833 av Hans Wikström, Nordiska museet, Fotograf: Bertil Wreting, Public domain.Musik: The Time Of Elegance av Neil Cross, Soundblock Audio Vill du stödja podden och samtidigt höra ännu mer av Historia Nu?

Sverige har bara haft tre regerande drottningar: Margareta I, Kristina och Ulrika Eleonora d.y. Drottningarnas främsta uppgift var vanligen att föda en arvprins, men de kunde under vissa förhållanden få ett stort politiskt inflytande – antingen som rådgivare åt kungen eller som förmyndare åt en minderårig regent.Drottningarna var dessutom viktiga brickor i arbetet med att skapa allianser med utländska kungahus. Positionen i det svenska hovet som ung drottning från ett främmande land kunde vara mycket utsatt.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledare Urban Lindstedt med Karin Tegenborg Falkdalen, idéhistoriker och författare till flera böcker om svenska drottningar och prinsessor. Hon är aktuell med boken Svenska Drottningar – I blickfånget från Vasatiden till idag.Bild: Drottning Kristina till häst, målning av Sébastien Bourdon från 1653.

Luther moves into film in The Fallen Sun. What does that format bring to the series? How does the paratext of James Bond Idris Elba fancasting play into the actual film? How does the film shift our understanding of the show, and the ‘Luther Land' setting? How does making a standalone-ish film after five serialised TV seasons work? We delve into these questions, along with ‘red rooms', moral conundrums, character continuity, filmic setpieces, questions of recasting, Idris Elba's 2015 Luther short film/music video, and several interviews with Idris Elba, writer Neil Cross, director Jamie Payne, & more!

For Luther, 2015 hosted a short fourth series, and an Idris Elba character concept album. 2019 presented a seemingly final series. What drove those episodes? What did those songs mean? Talks of a prequel film adaptation, to series 4 being a TV film, to series 5 being a final series before a film — why did the show shift in all these ways? How did Luther's character calcify across these series? What did Neil Cross mean by series 5's ending? What is ‘stage one' of the ‘Lutherverse'? We discuss all this, & much more!

Idris Elba talks Luther, Bond and Bloodsport as he and his Luther co-creators Neil Cross and Jamie Payne tell us about their feature length instalment of the hit TV show. Plus Jane Crowther and Leila Latif weigh up Luther, franchise entry Scream VI and basketball comedy Champions. There's also lion impressions.

Luther is back this week (albeit in film form) and series creator Neil Cross drops by the show to talk all about the big man in the coat. Plus, in an unusually feisty instalment of the pod, we evaluate the return of The Mandalorian, explore the phenomenon that is Abbott Elementary and have a huge, three-way blow up about ITV's The Bay, which involves so many shifting alliances and sudden turns it'll give you whiplash. We also (somehow) find the time to discuss some of the properties we're nervous to see coming to the screen.

The third series of Luther presented cracked mirrors of Idris Elba's title character, and broke down the core of the show in surprisingly conclusive ways. We discuss this early finality, along with Neil Cross ideology, the social role of TV, perverse fan pleasing, embracing comic book conventions, London verisimilitude, infectious ideas, British 'bubbles', middle class radicalism, Thomas Marwood as a character, the 'LutherTruther' movement, and much more.

When you are running away from something, you run the risk of finding things you'd never expect....On this episode we dive straight into the heart of darkness that is 'The Mosquito Coast' which is having it's season 2 debut today on the Apple+ streaming service.  Even in their new home, danger still lurks at every turn for the Fox family.Allie, Margot, Dina and Charlie continue their adventure on the lam, as they make their way through the Mexican rainforest and ultimately land in a seemingly idyllic community called Casa Rojas, led by the resolute Isela. While each person grapples with their own journey and acclimate to their new lives “off the grid,” they soon discover that Casa Rojas breeds its own dark secrets and agenda. In advance of the launch of the show we had the unique pleasure of sitting down with one of the stars of the show Melissa George.  We asked about getting to continue the story, the desire for an actor to get time with a character,  if she avoided any previous iterations of the story, the influences that got her into this business and so very much more....'The Mosquito Coast' will be releasing new episodes of Season 2 every Friday.

Ebba Stenbock (1550-1614) var slottsfru på Åbo slott år 1597 när Hertig Karls trupper belägrade slottet. Hertig Karls män imponerades av hennes mod när kanonerna talade, men hon tvingades betala ett högt pris för lojalitet med sin döde man Klas Fleming.I en tid av våldsam maktkamp mellan Hertig Karl och kung Sigismund hamnade Ebba Stenbock på den förlorande sidan genom sitt giftermål med ståthållaren i Finland Klas Fleming, som var lojal med Sigismund. Ebba Stenbock och hennes överlevande barn berövades sin egendom och sonen Johan avrättades 1599.I detta avsnitt samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Anu Lahtinen, biträdande professor i historia vid Helsingfors universitet och aktuell med boken Ebba Stenbock – I maktspelets skugga.Ebba Stenbock är kanske mest känd från Albert Edelfelts målning från 1878 ”Hertig Karl skymfar Klas Flemings liks som bygger på en tradition där Ebba Stenbock står upp mot Hertig Karls kränkning av den döde Klas Fleming. Själva skäggdragningen har säkerligen aldrig ägt rum.Ebba Stenbock (1550-1614) föddes in i den yppersta högadeln där pappan var riksråd och systern Katarina blev Gustav Vasas tredje fru. Ebba gifte sig 1573 med Klas Fleming – som kom att bli den mäktigaste mannen i den östra rikshalvan. Klas Fleming var var ökänd för sin brutalitet. Han slog ner bondeupproret Klubbekriget med stor grymhet och även hans ståndsbröder klagade på hans grymhet.Efter Johan III:s död år 1592 drogs Ebba Stenbock och hennes familj in i maktkampen mellan den nye kungen Sigismund och hans farbror, hertig Karl (den blivande Karl IX). Hertigen fick snabbt grepp om makten i det egentliga Sverige, men Klas Fleming, som var riksmarsk, amiral och ståthållare över Finland, fortsatte att försvara kungen Sigismunds position i östra delen av riket.Ebba Stenbock fungerade som rådgivare till Klas Fleming och hade troligtvis en mildrande effekt på sin brutale man. När Klas Fleming dog 1597, av sjukdom eller förgiftning, under striderna med Hertig Karl befanns sig Ebba Stenbock på Åbo slott som senare kapitulerade för Hertig Karl.Hertig Karl, senare Karl IX, var hämndlysten mot Klas Flemings familj. Sonen Johan Fleming avrättades i Åbo 1599, inte så mycket för det han gjort utan snarare för det han kunde tänkas göra i framtiden. Ebba Stenbock fördes till fångenskap i Stockholm och berövades all sin egendom. Lyssna också på Karl IX:s uppror, blodbad och näringspolitik samt Katarina Stenbocks liv mitt i striden mellan Vasasönerna.Bild: Hertig Karl, skymfande Klas Flemings lik, målning av Albert Edelfelt från 1878, Finlands nationalgalleri, public domain.Musik: When Bats Fly av Neil Cross, Soundblock Audio.Klippare: Emanuel LehtonenLäs mer om Ebba Gustavsdotter (Stenbock) i Svenskt kvinnobiografiskt lexikon (artikel av Anu Lahtinen), hämtad 2022-09-17.

Authors often wonder how to end a novel. We'll review the 8 most common ways to end a story. https://brightbirdpress.com/collections/all (Bullet journals for writers) - Bright Bird Press https://worderella.com/ (Belinda Kroll | Cozy Victorian fantasy & fiction) - Featured Author https://www.bookloft.com/ (The Book Loft of German Village, Columbus, Ohio) - Featured Bookstore https://bookriot.com/buying-books-onto-the-bestseller-list/ (A History of Buying Books Onto the Bestseller List) https://www.theatlantic.com/books/archive/2022/09/axios-smart-brevity-best-seller-list/671577/ (Axios's 'Smart Brevity' and Questionable Book-Selling Tactics - The Atlantic) https://mailchi.mp/2660f082d8e7/amazon-kdp-october?e=e1a8012ccc (Amazon & KDP Issues - Special Update) https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2022/09/artist-receives-first-known-us-copyright-registration-for-generative-ai-art/ (Artist receives first known US copyright registration for latent diffusion AI art | Ars Technica) https://forms.aweber.com/form/64/1857023764.htm (Free Style Sheet Templates) https://medium.com/@rosemi (Free Writing Tips) Music licensed from Storyblocks: “More Jam Please” by Raighes Factory “Gazing Out of a Cafe Window on a Rainy Day” by Tencher Music “Autumn Leaves” by Simon Sharp “The Wonder Years” by Humans Win “Fancy and Friendly” by Jon Presstone “Beautiful Way to End” by Neil Cross

This week, Dougray Scott, Jessica Raine and two scary skeleton creatures are all so unspeakably horny that all Nathan, Corey, Si and Pete can do is Hide. Notes and links Jessica Raine, who plays Emma in Hide will go on to play Doctor Who's first producer Verity Lambert in An Adventure in Space and Time, a drama about the origins of Doctor Who which is released a few months after this episode. But more about that later, perhaps. (Spoilers!) Sound Effects No. 13: Death & Horror was an album produced by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in 1977 and used continuously in TV and stage productions ever since. Mary Whitehouse complained vociferously about its release, because of course she did. Christopher Nolan's Interstellar (2014) also features time-travelling astronauts with a ghostly influence on the past. It's hard to imagine that it makes that much more sense than Hide though, isn't it? I considered writing about the racist lyrics of Cole Porter's Let's Do It, but after a second's reflection, I've decided to just let you Google them for yourself. But really, don't. The Stone Tape (1972) was a made-for-TV movie written by Quatermass's Nigel Kneale and featuring Jane Asher and Doctor Who's very own Ian Cuthbertson. Like Hide, it features researchers spending the night in a house haunted by a spectral woman, but Neil Cross would like to make it very clear that for copyright purposes, it is in every way a legally distinct entity from Hide. El Sandifer is particularly scathing in her assessment of Nigel Kneale in her essay on (among other things) ITV's 1978 TV movie version of Quatermass. And finally, Whatever Happened to Susan Foreman? was an episode of a comedy radio programme called Whatever Happened To…?, first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in June 1994 — featuring Jane Asher (again) as Susan Foreman. It was released as a special feature on the DVD of The Dalek Invasion of Earth. Actually, there is one more thing. The story from The Sarah Jane Adventures that we talk about in the tag is called Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?. It's amazing. Go and watch it immediately. Follow us Nathan is on Twitter as @nathanbottomley, Pete is @Prof_Quiteamess, and Si is @Si_Hart. Despite what he said on the podcast, Corey does have a Twitter account, at @CoreyMcCor. The Flight Through Entirety theme was arranged by Cameron Lam. You can follow the podcast on Twitter at @FTEpodcast. We're also on Facebook, and you can check out our website at flightthroughentirety.com.

And more You can find Jodie into Terror, our flashcast on the Whittaker Era of Doctor Who, at jodieintoterror.com, at @JodieIntoTerror on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and wherever podcasts can be found. We'll be releasing our final episode on The Power of the Doctor some time in October, we expect. Our James Bond commentary podcast is called Bondfinger, and you can find that at bondfinger.com, at @bondfingercast on Twitter, on Apple Podcasts, and everywhere else as well. We can also be heard on the Blakes 7 podcast Maximum Power, whose coverage of Series B will be starting soon, with a Very Special Episode That I Absolutely Can't Tell You About. And finally, there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we went back or forward in time to the first series of Star Trek: Discovery and watched Vaulting Ambition.

Konservatismen som en sammanhållen ideologi föddes när den irländska politikern Edmund Burke publicerade boken Reflektioner om revolutionen i Frankrike i november år 1790. Burke var mycket kritisk till den franska revolutionen som slänger traditioner över bord och låter vem som helst bestämma. Här presenterades en sammanhållen syn på samhället, människorna och politiken som senare kom att bli grunden för konservatismen som politisk ideologi.I början av 1800-talet kom filosofen Friedrich Hegel att fördjupa de konservativa idéerna med sin historiefilosofi. Under intryck från liberalismen utvecklas senare konservatismen i en socialkonservativ gren och en liberalkonservativ gren.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Jakob E:son Söderbaum som skrivit boken Modern konservatism – Filosofi, bärande idéer och inriktningar i Burkes efterföljd. Detta är det andra avsnittet i en serie om tre om de politiska ideologierna.Ett vanligt missförstånd om konservatismen är att den är helt emot upplysningen, vilket är fel, konservatismen är i allra högsta grad ett barn av upplysningen även om konservatismen vänder sig mot mycket av den idéerna och praktikerna under den franska revolutionen.Edmund Burke var inte emot förändring, men syftet med förändring är att bevara så mycket som möjligt av den bestående ordningen: ”Jag vill inte heller utesluta förändring; men även när jag förändrade skulle det vara för att bevara. Jag skulle tillgripa botemedlet blott mot en stor anledning till missnöje. I vad jag gjorde skulle jag följa våra förfäders exempel. Jag skulle göra reparationen så nära som möjligt till byggnadens ursprungliga stil.”Russel Kirk som är en politisk tänkare från 1900-talet har sammanfattat Burkes tänkande i en rad principer där grunden är att det krävs en balans mellan tradition och förändring, tron på en bestående ordning, värdet av normer och traditioner, försiktighetsprincipen vid förändringar, att sociala skillnader mellan människor är naturlig, att människorna är ofullkomliga vilket gör utopier farliga, sambandet mellan äganderätt och frihet och omhuldandet av det civila samhällets små gemenskaper.Bild omslag: Edmund Burke porträtterad c:a 1767–1769 av Joshua Reynolds, Wikipedia, Public Domain.Musik: The Time Of Elegance av Neil Cross, Storyblock Audio.

The podcast features poetry readings by the author, Bruce Wayne McLellan, from his book Poetry in the Nature of Things, Songs from the Great Wilderness. This poetry penetrates the humdrum monotony of everyday living to reveal the mystery and awestruck wonder found in Nature. Robin L. Flanigan, the author of M is for Mindful, declares, "With rich images that awaken every sense, McLellan's poetry uses the outdoor world to explore our inner world. His words take us on a universal journey, acknowledging that life is replete with questions but rife with purpose and unbound possibility."  https://tinyurl.com/zztas3n   Soundtrack - ©2014 Searching For Hope by Neil Cross

The early USSR owes many of its achievements to Stalin's secret police, called the People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs, or the NKVD. These guys really took Russian espionage to a new level. Their reach was global in scale; nearly anybody Stalin wanted dead, the NKVD could get it done. They administered the infamous Gulags and repressed their own people. They blurred the lines between internal police and military force by supporting Leftists during the Spanish Civil War and infiltrating the Manhattan Project.   The NKVD was a secret police force dictators dream of: vast, pervasive, feared, deadly, deceptive. They were at Stalin's beck and call.   On this episode, we explore the history and methods of the NKVD under the leadership of Genrikh Yagoda and Nikolai Yezhov. We'll cover the NKVD during WWII under Lavrentri Beria in part 5.   Sources The Russian Secret Police. Ronald Hingley. 1970. Stalin: Paradoxes of Power. Stephen Kotkin. 2014.

“My Name Is Sheba,” is the biweekly fictional saga of iconic jazz/R&B artist, Sheba Hawkins, who rose from obscurity as an orphan, to superstardom, and the music she created along the way.

From 1917 to 1922, the Cheka terrorized the Russian people into dedicating their lives to the Soviet State. Old institutions were destroyed, people were targeted on the basis of their socio-economic status, and farmers were forced into collectives. Those who disobeyed were likely shot, the most unfortunate were subjected to sadistic torture not seen since the time of Ivan the Terrible.  Under the leadership of Vladimir Ilych Lenin, the Bolsheviks seemed at first to bring real, much needed change to Russia. But it didn't take long for Lenin's true intentions to become clear: a dictatorship of the proletariat with himself at the helm.  Lenin was a man with many similarities to those he later deemed political enemies. He was unwavering in his faith in Marxism, but tweaked Marx' original writings into Leninism both in theory and in practice because, when it came to governing, Leninism was only achievable through the Red Terror unleashed by the Cheka.
