Answer 1

His period of active production was approximately 1590-1613. Parts of this period are variously called the Elizabethan Age (referring to Queen Elizabeth I), The Jacobean Period (referring to King James I), and The English Renaissance. In European History the time period is generally called the English Renaissance. However, specifically peaking in English history William Shakespeare's career coincided with the reigns of Queen Elizabeth I and King James I. Many consider this to be England's Golden Age.

Answer 2

William Shakespeare's career coincided with the reigns of Queen Elizabeth I and King James I. Queen Elizabeth's reign was the Elizabethan period, sometimes called "The Golden Age." King James reign is known as the "Jacobean" age - Jacob being a variation of the name "James." This period, and some years before and after are also known as The Renaissance. It is generally called the Elizabethan era, however in all honesty only about half of Shakespeare's life was during Elizabeth I's rule. Though she only lived 3 years into the 17th century, most of it is also considered Elizabethan because most of the same customs remained intact. William Shakespeare lived from 1564-1616, meaning all but the last 13 years of his life were lived during the Elizabethan period of English history.

Shakespeare only partly lived in the Elizabethan era, which is named for Queen Elizabeth I. The Elizabethan era ended when she died in 1603, but Shakespeare continued to live for another thirteen years in the Jacobean era.
