My first encounter with AS Byatt was in her book of lit crit in which she spoke very kindly about Georgette Heyer. I too was an avid reader of those historical romances and also found Heyer's reconstructions to be both well written and authentic. While I am reasonably well read in literture (I am an English teacher), my heart warmed to an acknowledgement by a famous author of some of the less than "elevated" influences that make us want to read and write.
Cheers!
