You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 34.205.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:44, 30 September 2026.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Peter Paul Rubens - The Coronation of the Hero of Virtue.jpg|thumb|''Coronation of the Hero of Virtue'' by [[Peter Paul Rubens]], ((circa|1612))–1614]]

'''Glory''' is high renown, praise, and honor obtained by notable achievements, and based in extensive common consent.<ref>((multiref2

))</ref> In Greek culture, fame and glory were highly considered, as is explained in ''[[The Symposium]]'', one of [[Plato]]'s dialogs.

==In Greek culture (((transliteration|grc|Kleos)))==
((Main|Kleos))
[[File:Achilles mourning the death of Patroclus, Corinthian Chytra.jpg|thumb|350px|Achilles mourning the death of Patroclus. Corinthian Chytra]]
'''((transliteration|grc|Kleos))''' (Greek: ((lang|grc|κλέος))) is the [[Greek language|Greek]] word often translated to "renown", or "glory". It is related to the word for "to hear" and carries the implied meaning of "what others hear about you". A Greek [[hero]] earns ((transliteration|grc|kleos)) through accomplishing great deeds, often through his own death. ((transliteration|grc|Kleos)) is invariably transferred from father to son((clarify|reason=if kleos only applied to men, we should mention/explain this; otherwise use gender-neutral language here|date=July 2023)); the son is responsible for carrying on and building upon the "glory" of the father.

((transliteration|grc|Kleos)) is a common theme in [[Homer]]'s epics, the ''[[Iliad]]'' and the ''[[Odyssey]]'', the main example in the latter being that of [[Odysseus]] and his son Telemachus, who is concerned that his father may have died a pathetic and pitiable death at sea rather than a reputable and gracious one in battle.

==Plato==
The Greek philosopher Plato, in his dialog ''[[Symposium (Plato)|Symposium]]'' devoted to discussing love, digresses into the subject of fame and glory. This comes in the section that concerns the dialog between [[Socrates]] and [[Diotima of Mantinea|Diotima]]. She is explaining that men search for some kind of immortality, for instance by means of physical and intellectual procreation. She then asserts that the love for fame and glory is very strong, and in fact to obtain them, men are ready to engage in great efforts, and also run risks and sacrifices, even of their lives ([[self-sacrifice]]), and will sacrifice still more for this than for their children. She then references [[Alcestis]] (who died to save [[Admetus]]), [[Achilles]] (to avenge [[Patroclus]]), and [[Codrus]], as examples of heroes in search of fame and immortal renown.<ref>((cite book|author=Plato|translator-last1=Hamilton|translator-first1=Walter|title=The Symposium|year=1951|orig-year=c. 380 BCE|publisher=Penguin Classics|page=90))</ref>

Plato believed "There's a victory, and defeat; the first and best of victories, the lowest and worst of defeats which each man gains or sustains at the hands not of another, but of himself." and "The first and best victory is to conquer self. To be conquered by self is, of all things, the most shameful and vile."((cn|date=July 2023)) Plato emphasized that [[victory]] is self-motivated, while glory is to benefit future victory.

==Jorge Manrique==
[[Jorge Manrique]] was a prominent Spanish poet of the fifteenth century. His most celebrated work was ''Coplas a la Muerte de su Padre'' (''Stanzas about the death of his father'') that was translated into the English language by poet [[Henry Wadsworth Longfellow]]. In it is an explanation of the three lives of men:((clarify|reason=if "men" is meant as males-only this should be made explicit; if "men" is being used generically for "people" consider switching to "people" to avoid the ambiguity.|date=July 2023))
#the terrestrial life, that ends with death
#the life of fame, that is retained by men's memory
#the eternal life, of the Christian faith

The life of fame is expressed in the following verse:
((Verse translation|lang=es|No se os haga tan amarga
la batalla temerosa
que esperáis,
pues otra vida más larga
de la fama gloriosa
acá dejáis|Think not the struggle that draws near
Too terrible for man, nor fear
To meet the foe;
Nor let thy noble spirit grieve,
Its life of glorious fame to leave
On earth below.|attr1=[[Jorge Manrique]]<ref>((cite web|first=Jorge|last=Manrique|editor-last1=Cortina|editor-first1=Augusto|title=Coplas por la Muerte de su Padre|url=https://www.cervantesvirtual.com/obra-visor-din/obra-completa--0/html/ff6c9480-82b1-11df-acc7-002185ce6064_4.html#I_53_|publisher=Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes|accessdate=2015-03-29))</ref>|attr2=[[Henry Wadsworth Longfellow]]<ref>((cite book|title=Coplas de Don Jorge Manrique|url=https://archive.org/details/coplasdedonjorge00manr|translator-first=Henry W.|translator-last=Longfellow|year=1833|location=Boston|publisher=Allen and Ticknor|at=[https://archive.org/details/coplasdedonjorge00manr/page/67/mode/1up XXXVII]))</ref>))
