The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Attila

Short summary

This book explores the 5th century CE, an era of major geopolitical and cultural shifts across western Eurasia, marked by the Western Roman Empire's collapse, the rise of new kingdoms, the continuation of the Byzantine Empire, and the increased presence of Eurasian steppe peoples in Europe, with Attila serving as both a catalyst and symbol of this transition.
