We begin counting with December 25th as day one, the "first day of Christmas." Counting to the "twelfth day of Christmas" brings us to January 5th, the end of the Christmas season. January 6th is the Feast of Epiphany. Some say this is twelfth night, but would actually be the 13th.


Did Shakespeare write comedy?

Yes. Not only did he write a number of plays called comedies (which meant mostly that things turned out well in the end for them), but some of them are actually funny in places. Benedick overhearing the planted conversation about Beatrice's love for him in Much Ado About Nothing, the swordfight between the reluctant Sir Andrew Aguecheek and the even more reluctant Viola in Twelfth Night, Rosalind lecturing the love-struck Phoebe in As You Like It, or the mechanicals' production of Pyramus and Thisbe in Midsummer Night's Dream are all very funny scenes. He also put funny scenes into the tragedies--the Porter scene in Macbeth is a fine example.


What were some of shakespeares plays between 1558 and 1603?

Hamlet, Henry V, Julius Caesar, and Measure for Measure are all in this period. Twelfth Night is as well. It was the era of the great tragedies, like Hamlet and Othello, of the last of the golden comedies, like Twelfth Night and As You Like It, and the beginning of the darker comedies like Troilus and Cressida and Measure for Measure.
