كان للنساء دور فاعل من خلال كتابة الرسائل الروائية، حيث كن يشاركن في الحراك الأدبي و هن في منازلهن يبعثن رسائلهن إلى الصديقات وأفراد أسرهن، سواء كانت تجسد واقعاً حقيقياً، أو َّ متخيلاً. و كان من نتائج هذا التوجه أن نشُر لهن و من الروايات التي نالت إعجاب القراء في القرن 17th إيفيلينا (Evelina) للكاتبة مدام دي أربلي/ فني بيرني Madame d' Arblay Fanny Burney
The epistolary novel, in the English and French literature, reflects the social relationships, immorality, degraded behavior among some of the society segments thus it tends to criticize the community and opposing the social fact that some segments of the society lives, namely aristocrats as well as aristocrats' way of life, lavish living in terms of clothing, food and parties for fun rather than for intellectual gathering. In the same time, epistolary novels depicts how poor and destitute lives; however, such literature is rich in terms of eloquence, writing skills and imagination. Nonetheless, women were the pioneers in such literature as their role in literature is conspicuous although they were writing their topics from their homes thus sending the same to friends and family members regardless of fiction or nonfiction concepts. Therefore, the women output of epistolary novels had received ample recognition and their work published widely thus commended highly in the 17th century
