Attila and the Huns in the Remnants of Rome's Rule
In an excerpt from H G Wells outlining Attila the Hun, the text traces his rise from central Asia to invasions of Gaul and Italy, the defeat at Troyes, and the eventual decline of the Huns. It notes diplomatic exchanges with Theodosius II, the pope’s mediation, and the broader shift of European populations after Attila’s death in 452, leading to later Magyar and Avar movements.

Berlin theater fails to carry spoken word in vast venue
Max Reinhardt era dream of a Berlin stage for classics collapses as critics deem the Grosses Schauspielhaus unsatisfactory for dialogue heavy plays. Werner Krauss struggles to be heard in King Lear as spectators face the cavernous arena like a Kentucky cavern.
