Léonard (1744-1793), was born in Guadeloupe, which he left for France as a child. A poet at the age of 18, he made a name for himself with his "idylls". Desiring to return to his native island, he found a position as a lieutenant of the seneschaussée of Pointre-à-Pitre. He left in 1784 and returned in 1791, after having escaped an assassination attempt. He left us an interesting report of this stay "Lettre sur un voyage aux Antilles" (pp. 173-240 of T I).
