The exhibition held in Paris commemorating the bicentenial of Heinrich Heine showed three prescriptions by Dr. D. Gruby, through which morphine was prescribed for the poet by external route. The use of morphine was justified in a patient with unrelieved pain caused by neurosyphilis during the last twelve years of his life. This way of morphine administration (endemic method) was quite popular between 1830 and 1860. The process consisted in stripping the derm with the help of a vesicant and in applying directly on it morphine salts crystals. Several authors commented the interest of this way of administration rather uncomfortable for the patient but apparently very effective.

In the sphere of language, Hugo von Hofmannsthal was already in his childhood talented by nature. His first poems and essays he wrote when he was 17 years old, his first drama ("The Death of Tizian") in his 18th year. From the beginning he followed the great tradition of the theatre of Vienna. His lyrical creations end already before he turned 30 years. At this time the dramatist begins with the reception of the medieval mystery plays, Calderon and the greek-oriental myths. The phenomena of gliding-out-of-the-world are found before this time, in the period of his very own spiritual conceiving. They show a remarkable inclination to abandon the world of reality (Wirklichkeit, koinos kosmos): gliding into the world of dream and trance, of phantastic tales, of magic and demonia, of depersonalization and dilusion, of dying and of death (idios kosmos). These tendencies vanish when Hofmannsthal turns to more conventional topics.

The author uses the life and personal history of the poet Edna St. Vincent Millay, as revealed through her diaries and letters and in biographies, to illustrate a particular type of psychoanalytic patient. Such patients are resistant to change, particularly when it involves letting go of the internalization of early parental figures. Although some of these patients fail to achieve successful analytic outcomes, Millay is an example of someone with similar circumstances who nevertheless made significant creative contributions.
