Literature is a carrier of culture and history. This can be revealed in the corroborative evidence that can be extracted from historical events, when they are compared to what have been found in the novels. The thesis makes it clear that the success of the novels as carriers of history depends on the writers' tendencies and highlights the fact that the writers have to strive for accuracy and credibility of their novels to be accepted as valid and reliable sources of history. In the meantime, valid historical novels should reflect the factual background of a particular period or race.

History should help them appreciate that they are not in any way different from other people in the world around them.
