Sie erschien zunächst 1807 in Cottas Morgenblatt für gebildete Stände unter dem Titel Jeronimo und Josephe. Eine Szene aus dem Erdbeben zu Chili, vom Jahr 1647. Während das Erdbeben von 1647 in Santiago de Chile (bei Kleist „St. Jago, [die] Hauptstadt des Königreichs Chili) die historische Vorlage für den Text bietet, ist ideengeschichtlich vor allem das Lissabonner Erdbeben von 1755 für Kleist Anlass gewesen.
