It has been shown that up to degree shifts any integrable highest weig
ht (or standard) module of level k for an affine Lie algebra g can be
imbedded in the tenser product of k copies of level one integrable hig
hest weight modules. When the affine Lie algebra g is of classical typ
e the path realizations of the crystal bases for the level one U-q(g)-
modules have been used to obtain these results. (C) 1995 Academic Pres
