La Carta al Dr. Arbuthnot és una sàtira en forma de poema escrita per Alexander Pope i dirigida al seu amic John Arbuthnot, que era metge. Publicada per primer cop el 1735, Pope l'havia compost un any abans, el 1734, en assabentar-se que Arbuthnot s'estava morint. Pope va descriure-la com un homenatge a llur amistat. Considerada com la seva obra «més obertament autobiogràfica», hi defensa l'exercici que va fer del gènere de la sàtira, alhora que hi ataca aquells que havia tingut per oponents o per rivals al llarg de la seva carrera.

The Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot is a satire in poetic form written by Alexander Pope and addressed to his friend John Arbuthnot, a physician. It was first published in 1735 and composed in 1734, when Pope learned that Arbuthnot was dying. Pope described it as a memorial of their friendship. It has been called Pope's "most directly autobiographical work", in which he defends his practice in the genre of satire and attacks those who had been his opponents and rivals throughout his career.

Tant pel que fa a la composició com a la publicació, el poema va tenir una història accidentada. La forma canònica està formada per 419 versos en dístics heroics. La Carta al Dr. Arbuthnot és coneguda per ser l'origen de l'expressió anglesa «damning with faint praise» (maleir amb una lloança lleu), feta servir tan sovint que ha acabat per convertir-se en un clixé, en un idiotisme. Un altre dels seus versos més famosos és «¿Qui trenca una papallona damunt d'una roda?»

It has been called Pope's "most directly autobiographical work", in which he defends his practice in the genre of satire and attacks those who had been his opponents and rivals throughout his career. Both in composition and in publication, the poem had a chequered history. In its canonical form, it is composed of 419 lines of heroic couplets. The Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot is notable as the source of the phrase "damn with faint praise," used so often it has become a cliché or idiom. Another of its notable lines is "Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel?"
