How did the lives of the heroines of the sentimental novels compare with the lives of real women of the nineteenth century? what made them so popular?

The sentimental novel is an 18th-century literary genre which depends on expressive retort, from both the readers and characters. It features prospects of agony and sensitivity, and the intrigue is organized to advance both sentiments and arrangements. The critics resist that the novels represent concerns and appeals that were pertinent to nineteenth-century women which gives rise to their family affairs, issues of reliance and liberation, and characterizations of virtue and femininity. The category lends intuition into both the fad of home life and the opposition to that idyllic that developed from the augmented education of women under American republicanism.
