During the post-Elizabethan era, society was divided into two opposing groups which held differing views on art, literature, politics, religion, and life in general; these two groups were called the Cavaliers and the Roundheads.
Roundheads were typically more conservative in all areas and held a "Carpe Eternum" philosophy, believing that each choice should be carefully made as to not sin and be frowned upon by God on judgment day. This contradicted the belief of Cavaliers, who held a "Carpe Diem" philosophy and believed that life should be lived in the moment.
Roundheads enforced modest dress and strict moral behavior; they banned celebrations such as Christmas and Easter and believed that Sunday was a day for meditating and prayer rather than relaxation.
Additionally, they read mainly religious literature, shut down theaters, and curtailed tavern business.
In regards to politics and religion, they supported the Parliament and the rights of elected officials, wanted to reform the Anglican church, and were intolerant of Catholics.
