1. COMEDY

2. Definition
 Comedies dominated the professional stage in the late sixteenth century; they
were defined by their happy endings rather than their use of humour, and
borrowed from classical and European comic writing.
John Lyly paved the way for comedies by producing a series for the new boy companies, including:
 Campaspe (1584)
And
 Endymion: The Man in the Moon (1591)

3.  Traditionally, comedies were written in verse, however, Lyly experimented with an
ornate prose style similar to that he employed in his well-known prose
 works:
 Euphues. The Anatomy of Wit (1578)
 and
 Euphues and His England (1580)

4.  His plots are complicated, and several of his plays include multiple, thematically
and structurally related
 stories.
