Kunito Nagaoka comments:

"Registered eruptions of different magnitudes:"

1940: 46

1941: 398

1942: 279

1943: 0

"My eruption from my mother's womb occurred during a time of the most violent volcanic activity. Yet I emerged from the agitated night into the agitated day, of the not yet separated unity of subject and object"
