Am 8. Juni 1783 brach der isländische Vulkan Laki aus. An diesem Tag öffnete sich eine Spalte mit 130 Kratern, Grundwasser traf auf das aufsteigende Basaltmagma, riesige Explosionen waren die Folge. Jon Steingrimson, Pfarrer aus Sída in Südostisland, war Augenzeuge eines der größten Vulkanausbrüche der Geschichte. Er protokollierte in seinem 1784 erschienenen Text die Ereignisse, als deren Folge etwa ein Fünftel der isländischen Bevölkerung starb. Die meisten Menschen verhungerten, weil die Landwirtschaft brachlag, andere hatten sich mit dem Fleisch von verseuchten Tieren vergiftet. Einzigartig erscheint die Verbindung von wissenschaftlicher Faszination, mitfühlender Beobachtung der gesellschaftlichen Folgen und Steingrimsons Sicherheit, dass alles, was geschieht, höherer Wille sei.
