The inspiration for "The silver thistle" is deeply rooted in history. In the past time, at various conferences, such as the Lorsch monastery in the World Heritage Site, the causes and effects of these peasant riots of 1525 were discussed in detail. It became clear that the peasant war not only arose from the dissatisfied basic need for people, but was also very politically motivated. Researchers like Justine Firnhaber-Baker and Thomas Roth have analyzed specific aspects of these unrest, such as the role of the Reformation and the everyday topics that led to rebellion.
