A person who studies, collects, or writes about epistles; a scholar of letters or epistolary literature.
From epistle plus the Greek root -graph- (writing) plus -er (one who does). This combines epistle with the scholar/specialist suffix pattern seen in choreographer or paleographer.
An epistolographer is basically a letter historian—and the study of great letters (like those between famous writers or historical figures) reveals how people actually thought, felt, and reasoned across centuries.
