OriginMiddle English (in the sense 'shine strongly'): from Middle Dutch and Middle Low German glaren 'to gleam, glare': perhaps related to glass. The sense 'stare' occurred first in the adjective glaring (late Middle English). glass from Old English: The substance glass goes back to ancient Mesopotamia or Phoenicia (modern Lebanon and Syria). Glasses ‘spectacles’ dates from the mid 18th century, although before that people would use a single glass or ‘an eye glass’. ‘Men seldom make passes / At girls who wear glasses’ is by the American wit Dorothy Parker (1893–1967). The proverb people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, dates from the 17th century. People started complaining of the existence of a glass ceiling, meaning an unofficial barrier to advancement at work, especially for a woman, in the early 1980s. Glaze (Late Middle English), to equip with glass, comes from glass and was first used of eyes, in Shakespeare's Richard II: ‘For Sorrowes eyes glazed with blinding tears, Divides one thing entire to many objects.’ Glare (Middle English) first found in the sense ‘dazzling shine’ may be related.
