Attila is a 1846 opera by Giuseppe Verdi to a libretto by Temistocle Solera, based on a play by Zacharias Werner.It's the 5th century AD, and the Huns, led by Attila, have just plundered the town of Aquileia. Among the prisoners, there is the beautiful Action Girl Odabella, who impresses Attila with her courage – so much that he gives her his own sword. She plans to kill him in revenge for him killing her father, and revels in the poetic justice of using Attila's own weapon for that.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Roman general Ezio arrives and initially tries to negotiate with Attila, admitting that the current Roman emperors are unfit to rule and he's willing to surrender the world to the Huns, if he would only have Italy. Attila refuses the deal, and Ezio says that in this case, he'll fight him to the last.Far away, a remote monastery welcomes refugees from Aquileia, led by Foresto, Odabella's fiance. He inspires the refugees to build a new city on the site – the city that will later become Venice; while he himself goes back to look for Odabella. As they are reunited, she tells him of her future revenge.Meanwhile, Attila's plan to take Rome is foiled when at the gates he is met by Pope Leo, whom Attila recognizes as an old man from the nightmare he had the night before.Foresto joins forces with Ezio and conspires with one of the Huns' slaves to have Attila poisoned. Odabella reveals their plan, unwilling to have her revenge taken away from her, and to reward her, Attila promises to make her his wife. On the wedding day, Ezio leads the Roman army to ambush the Huns. Discovering Odabella with Foresto, Attila realizes he has been betrayed, and Odabella stabs him with his own sword.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) The opera contains examples of:
