The quality of fame won by deeds, not quite the same as
renown . Glory is the quality of the ârushâ won from victory, and as such was highly valued as a motivator by warriors and equally scorned by the
church . Warriors and
knights considered glory a good thing, one that drove men to greatness, a reward for excellence that was the right of the successful warrior. The church viewed glory as a force that drove men to recklessness, to vainglory, to excess.
