Cognitive therapists have described cognitive distortions that are frequently associated with depression. These distortions include arbitrary inference, selective abstraction, overgeneralization, magnification and minimization, personalization, and dichotomous thinking, which are often present in suicidal individuals. This article suggests it is useful to conceptualize cognitive distortions in literary terms and uses the professional oeuvre of confessional poet Anne Sexton to identify salient examples.

The article analyzes the views of three Argentinean authors who wrote about tuberculosis in the first half of the twentieth century. All three had some form of contact with TB but each lived during a different period, came from a different social background, and worked with a different genre. These differences notwithstanding, their common focuses and viewpoints demonstrate how to a certain extent society shared a common perception of the disease.

One of the most important figures in the development of the dental profession was Solyman Brown, in whose home the leading dentists of his day met and organized the first national dental organization in the world as well as the first dental journal in the world. He was named the first secretary of the organization and served, for two years, as the first editor of the journal. A true Renaissance man, Brown was also a consummate, and widely published, poet, and his epic poem, Dentologia, was hailed by the critics of his day as a literary masterpiece, earning him the sobriquet, "Poet Laureate of Dentistry." Recently Solyman Brown's great-great grandson, cleaning out an attic, discovered a trunk full of material relating to Brown's life - his daughters' memoirs, many of his letters and other of his writings, and many of his unpublished poetical works. This author was fortunate to be able to study all this material, and the poems published herein give a much fuller and rounded picture of this monumental figure in American, and world, dentistry.
