In this essay glory and honour will be dealt with together‚ although glory tends to be associated with wartime victory‚ whereas honour is related to the upholding of status

    The Glory of the Lord by Handel has four motifs which are: ‘And the Glory the Glory of the Lord’ – This motif outlines the chord of A major‚ the tonic chord‚ and moves up the last three notes of the scale. This helps to establish the key. The word-setting is syllabic‚ one word to a syllable. ‘Shall be revealed’ – In this motif the second bar is a repeat of the first bar but a tone lower. The word ‘revealed’ is melismatic (several notes to one syllable). ‘For the mouth of the lord hath spoken it’

    Glory of Women – Siegfried Sassoon You love us when we’re heroes‚ home on leave‚
 Or wounded in a mentionable place.
 You worship decorations; you believe
 That chivalry redeems the war’s disgrace.

 And mourn our laurelled memories when we’re killed.
 You can’t believe that British troops "retire"
 When hell’s last horror breaks them‚ and they run

    Let me start off by stating that this was my first viewing of Stanley Kubrick’s Paths of Glory. The movie also enlightened me of how the French army command of World War I acted and carried out their policy of cowardice. This film was banned in France for 18 years after its 1957 release for anti-militarist sentiments. As for being Kubrick’s first major studio flick‚ he re-creates realistic‚ historical conditions of what went on during the pre- to post- battle scene‚ along with the contrast in the
