Curtis and Christen Mucher have performed crucial scholarly work by making available to Anglophone scholars of early Americas an edited translation of Haitis first novel, Emeric Bergeauds Stella Curtiss and Muchers translation is a solid effort., "Representing the Haitian Revolution has proven as much a challenge for Haitian as for Caribbean writers. An early exemplar of the ideal of the Haitian writer as national visionary, meric Bergeaud was a pioneer in this regard, choosing the novel form to recount Haiti's complex revolutionary past. More than a mere curiosity, Stella uses symbol and allegory to establish a foundational myth for the new republic.
