Why do we celebrate April Fools Day?
There are a lot of explanations for it, but the most popular revolves around the start of the year. In the Middle Ages. many places celebrated the New Year in a week-long party starting on March 25 and ending on April 1. It coincided with a Christian rite called the Feast of the Annunciation, when the Angel Gabriel told the Virgin Mary she was to be the mother of Jesus. When the New Year was changed to January 1, the people who changed to the new holiday called people who celebrated the old one "April fools."
How did April Fools' Day get its name?
The practice began during the reign of Constantine, when a group of court jesters and fools told the Roman emperor that they could do a better job of running the empire. Constantine, amused, allowed a jester named Kugel to be king for one day. Kugel passed an edict calling for absurdity on that day, and the custom became an annual event. "In a way," explained Prof. Boskin, "It was a very serious day. In those times fools were really wise men. It was the role of jesters to put things in perspective with humor." This explanation was brought to the public's attention in an Associated Press article printed by many newspapers in 1983. There was only one catch: Boskin made the whole thing up. It took a couple of weeks for the AP to realize that they'd been victims of an April Fools' joke themselves. ------------------- One explanation is this: When the calendar was changed so that the year would begin on January 1 instead of March 25, some people stubbornly clung to the old tradition. Those who started their New Year celebration on the old date in March and continued into April were referred to as April fools.
