Three Principles of Puritanism (1) The desire to have one’s feelings or life changed radically was an experience called grace. Grace involved a cleansing of the individual — a purging of sinfulness. Grace also entailed much self- examination as the Puritan sought signs that God was working within him. This is key to understanding Edward’s point of view. (2) Puritans valued plainness, especially in religion. This extended to their writing. For examples, see in particular, Ann Bradstreet poetry, “Upon the Burning of our House” and “To My Dead and Loving Husband.” This insistence on plain speaking shapes much of American literature. (3) The Puritans were convinced that they were carrying on God’s work in settling the New World. Their lives in the New World were a divine mission (very evident in William Bradford’s writing).

Puritans disapproved of such secular amusements as dancing and card-playing, which were associated with ungodly aristocrats and immoral living. Reading or writing "light" books also fell into this category. Puritan minds poured their tremendous energies into nonfiction and pious genres: poetry, sermons, theological tracts, and histories. Their intimate diaries and meditations record the rich inner lives of this introspective and intense people.

 Some Puritans wanted to completely separate from the Church of England (they were called Separatists). The group of Pilgrims who came on the Mayflower in 1620 were Separatists.  10 years after the Mayflower, a group of Puritans, led by John Winthrop landed in New England and established the Massachusetts Bay Colony. They were still loyal to the Church of England, but believed they could purify the behavior of individuals (purify the Church from within). Puritan Beliefs  The Puritans were a group of people who criticized (wanted to “purify”) the corruption and hierarchy in the Church of England. The Church of England was the official church in England that everyone automatically belonged to.  Puritans believed that the final authority came from the Bible, not from church officials, and therefore, every individual had direct access to the word of God.
