I could see where this line of thought comes from though. Faramir says that Boromir wanted his dad to be king. That he was annoyed that his dad basically ruled but Denethor was still only a Steward. So, there's an element in his character that wanted personal glory for his family (and for himself? I'd have to reread the passage). I mean, he was probably pretty young when this came up and it doesn't inform his actions in the book but it is there.

But wanting glory and wanting to protect your people are not mutually exclusive things. And I can't think of a single passage that suggests that he didn't genuinely care about his people or want to do his duty and protect them.

Other anon and I'm not saying he was JUST interested in glory - just that I think there were multiple elements involved

[philstar22]

Ah, okay, that I can agree with. I just don't think he was "more concerned" with glory than with his people.

[(Anonymous)]

No one has said that.

Eh, some of the things I said could def have been read that way, even if it's not where I wanted to go. It was a reasonable response.

[philstar22]

The first person said that he was more concerned with being seen as the hero than with actually protecting his people. So that's exactly what they seem to be saying. And I personally think that his primary concern was protecting his people even though there were other concerns as well.
