Reviewing Anna Katharina Schaffner\u2019s new <em>Exhaustion: A History<\/em>, Hannah Rosefield unpacks the durable notion of exhaustion as a status symbol: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/newrepublic.com\/article\/135468\/exhaustion-became-status-symbol\" target=\"_blank\">Many critics, even as they call for a cure, frame exhaustion as a mark of distinction. This idea dates back at least to Aristotle<\/a>. \u2018Why is it that all men who have become outstanding in philosophy, statesmanship, poetry or the arts are melancholic?\u2019 he wonders in\u00a0<em>Problemata<\/em> \u2026 The associations of exhaustion with prestige have crystallized in the form of burnout. First used in the 1970s to describe exhaustion suffered by workers in the social sector, <em>burnout<\/em> was characterized by increased cynicism and apathy, and a decreased sense of personal accomplishment. Since then, its application has widened to include all worn down, overburdened workers, especially in Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands, where burnout is a subject of regular media debate. Burnout, caused by workplace conditions rather than by a worker\u2019s mental and physical composition, is depression\u2019s more palatable, more prestigious cousin.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>I\u2019d long assumed that one could never enter one\u2019s average house cat in a pageant. Only the purebreds could know the thrill of the blue ribbon, I thought. The calicos and tabbies of this earth were doomed to the mundane. But I was wrong, as Omar Mouallem taught me: \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/hazlitt.net\/longreads\/miss-cat-geniality\" target=\"_blank\">I got over the stench of piss at the Edmonton Cat Show pretty quickly. It\u2019s not so much my nostrils that adjusted but my eyes, to rows and rows of beautiful creatures<\/a>. Plump British shorthairs smiled in their sleep and regal sphynxes owned their ugly \u2026 [The International Cat Association]\u00a0has been showing and awarding titles to non-purebred domestic cats\u2014even the maligned black ones\u2014since its 1973 beginnings. It\u2019s a stark contrast to the practices of the 110-year-old Cat Fanciers\u2019 Association, which for decades didn\u2019t even bother hosting the category. The association now emphasizes it like\u00a0TICA, and in the last three years finally started giving non-purebred cats Grand Championship titles equal to pedigrees. The hope is that it will curb the cat fancy world\u2019s declining entries and revenues.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>There\u2019s a plaque at 14 West Twenty-Third\u00a0Street, where Edith Wharton grew up. Otherwise, don\u2019t expect to recognize the place. This is New York, people! What\u2019d you want us to do, preserve the joint? Rachael Revesz notes that \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/arts-entertainment\/edith-wharton-age-of-innocence-roman-fever-novelist-new-york-city-church-a7143501.html\" target=\"_blank\">in such an old city, there are surprisingly few relics that remain as they were during the prolific novelist\u2019s time, and nothing, beyond a small red plaque at her childhood home, to commemorate the most iconic New York writer of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century<\/a> \u2026 Her house has been altered so many times in the last century that it cannot be delegated as a protected building. It is now a Starbucks on the ground floor, where her father\u2019s extensive study used to be \u2026 Although the corporate exterior of the building might cause some to groan, few people might know that Starbucks was named after a character in <em>Moby-Dick<\/em> by Herman Melville, a distant cousin of Edith\u2019s.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Today in old advice that\u2019s still good advice: If you, an aspiring artist, want to take the road to success, don\u2019t stop off at the Hotel Know It All, the Mutual Admiration Society, or the Always Right Club. Tunnel through Lack of Preparation Mountain and for God\u2019s sake watch your step around the Holes of Illiteracy and Conceit. A 1913 allegorical map called the Road to Success \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.atlasobscura.com\/articles\/this-century-old-map-details-the-path-to-musical-success\" target=\"_blank\">turns the figurative journey towards artistic triumph into a cartographic\u00a0depiction of an actual climb towards victory<\/a> \u2026 Taking shortcuts won\u2019t get you anywhere except\u00a0to the bottom of the River of Failure, which threatens to sweep away anyone who\u2019s not up to the challenge of putting in hard work.\u00a0And don\u2019t just blow hot air, or you\u2019ll end up in the clouds.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Here\u2019s the time-tested way to gin up your crummy sci-fi flick: pretend it\u2019s a western. In <em>Star Trek Beyond<\/em>, writes Richard Brody, \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/culture\/richard-brody\/a-quasi-american-star-trek-beyond\" target=\"_blank\">the words <em>Republic<\/em> and <em>Federation<\/em> are intoned like mantras to position the mission in quasi-American terms<\/a>; the name Yorktown links the space combat of <em>Star Trek Beyond<\/em> to the existential, the primordial, and the revolutionary\u2014the fight to retain independence in the face of a force that would snap it back in, engulf it in a dictatorial order, and milk it as a mere source of sustenance \u2026 The self-celebration of a legacy property\u2019s sequel has rarely been framed in such starkly civic terms: the link between the historical continuity of the American federation and the personal continuity of family is the cultural continuity of <em>Star Trek<\/em> and pop music\u2014and, for that matter, of classic Hollywood.
