Download or read book The Huns written by Hyun Jin Kim and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a concise introduction to the history and culture of the Huns. This ancient people had a famous reputation in Eurasian Late Antiquity. However, their history has often been evaluated as a footnote in the histories of the later Roman Empire and early Germanic peoples. Kim addresses this imbalance and challenges the commonly held assumption that the Huns were a savage people who contributed little to world history, examining striking geopolitical changes brought about by the Hunnic expansion over much of continental Eurasia and revealing the Huns' contribution to European, Iranian, Chinese and Indian civilization and statecraft. By examining Hunnic culture as a Eurasian whole, The Huns provides a full picture of their society which demonstrates that this was a complex group with a wide variety of ethnic and linguistic identities. Making available critical information from both primary and secondary sources regarding the Huns' Inner Asian origins, which would otherwise be largely unavailable to most English speaking students and Classical scholars, this is a crucial tool for those interested in the study of Eurasian Late Antiquity.

Download or read book Attila written by John Man and published by Bantam Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first popular biography of the great warlord, Attila the Hun. The name Attila the Hun has become a byword for barbarism, savagery and violence. His is a truly household name, but what do we really know about the man himself, his position in history and the world in which he lived? This riveting biography reveals the man behind the myth. In the years 434-454AD the fate of Europe hung upon the actions of one man, Attila, king of the Huns. The decaying Roman empire still stood astride the Western World, from its twin capitals of Rome and Constantinople, but it was threatened by a new force, the much-feared Barbarian hordes. It was Attila who united the Barbarian tribes into a single, amazingly-effective army. He launched two violent attacks against the eastern and western halves of the Roman empire, attacks which earned him his reputation for mindless devastation, and brought an end to Rome's pre-eminence in Europe. Attila was coarse, capricious, arrogant, ruthless and brilliant. An illiterate and predatory tribal chief, he had no interest in administration, but was a wily politician, who, from his base in the grasslands of Hungary, used secretaries and ambassadors to bring him intelligence on his enemies. He was a leader whose unique qualities made him supreme among tribal leaders, but whose weaknesses ensured the collapse of his empire after his death.

This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racing out of the east, their origins unknown, a new breed of barbarian arrived on the Roman frontier in time to find the Imperial Juggernaut on its last legs. Their warriors were taught to ride before they learned to walk, and they crafted a compound bow that was more powerful than anything the Romans had seen. The Huns were warrior nomads who arrived in Europe, breaking the fragile peace that had existed along the Roman border. Scores of barbarian tribes fled before the Huns, invading Rome in an effort to get away from the demon horse lords. As Rome was dealing with the conflagrations all along its borders, it found in the Huns an adversary they could not fight; so Rome paid for peace. Paying tribute to the Huns was enough to cause many believe that the End of Days had arrived, that the Huns were a scourge that had been sent by God against the wickedness of the Romans. Revelations had said that the Antichrist would be preceded by Four Horsemen; Attila arrived with over Forty Thousand. For the Romans, the arrival of the Huns would indeed be the signal for Judgment Day, for the beginning of the end.
