Emeric Bergeaud Emeric Bergeaud (1818–1858) was a Haitian novelist. His best-known work, "Stella", was the first Haitian novel. Born in Cayes, he served as Secretary to Jerome Maximilien Borgella and later participated in a revolt against President Soulouque. Exiled to Saint Thomas, it was there that he wrote the novel "Stella." Marlene Daut has recently revealed in "Tropics of Haiti: Race and the Literary History of the Haitian Revolution in the Atlantic World, 1789-1865", that three Haitian journalists and writers from the early twentieth-century, Ulrick Duvivier, Frédéric Marcelin, and Louis Morpeau, suspected or more likely erroneously believed that "Stella" was actually authored by Bergeaud's wife (413-14, ftn. 2). At the present time, there is no other known evidence that supports the claims of Duvivier, Marcelin, and Morpeau.
