Romances: PoemsIn this subtle and candid collection, Lisa Ampleman mixes contemporary elements and historical materials as she speaks back to the literary tradition of courtly love. Instead of bachelor knights bemoaning their allegedly cruel beloveds, Romances emphasizes the voices of female troubadours, along with those of historical figures such as Dante's wife, Petrarch's Laura, and Anne Boleyn. Ampleman also incorporates the work of the Italian Renaissance poet
In this subtle and candid collection, Lisa Ampleman mixes contemporary elements and historical materials as she speaks back to the literary tradition of courtly love. Instead of bachelor knights bemoaning their allegedly cruel beloveds, Romances emphasizes the voices of female troubadours, along with those of historical figures such as Dante's wife, Petrarch's Laura, and Anne Boleyn. Ampleman also incorporates the work of the Italian Renaissance poet Gaspara Stampa, mentioned in Rilke's Duino Elegies, through a series of adaptations of her verse. Elsewhere, a contemporary sonnet sequence dedicated to Courtney Love shows the 1990s grunge rocker as subject, object, performer, and mother. As her poems reflect on popular romantic ideas about the past, the means by which elegies romanticize the dead, or the conventional romance of a happy marriage, Ampleman addresses a range of romantic entanglements: courtly and commonplace, sentimental and prosaic, toxic and mutual.--David Wojahn, author of World Tree, winner of the Lenore Marshall Poetry PrizeBinding Type: Paperback

Asurion worked when needed!
My faithful dust buster broke and the nozzle wouldn't stay attached to the vacuum. I used my Asurion extension and they took care of it quickly with no hassle.
Thanks

Great coverage, easy to use, quick response to requests
Great service. Very easy to request and quick to receive a resolution. Their website is a bit confusing, it seems to default to mobile phone inquiries, there is another section to request service on other items. I will definitely purchase protection in the future.

I’m really happy I bought this protection
I had a steam mop that did a great job cleaning my floor and Lazy Boy. After 2 years of using it the mop didn’t work anymore. I remember I bought this protection. I was shocked how easy and fast the claim was paid. I was able to buy a new mop and get another 3 year warranty. I would definitely recommend this for household appliances.

Extended Warranty is worth it.
So glad I took out a three year warranty, my Shark Steam Mop stopped steaming.
Asurion refunded me with Amazon credit.
Thank you.

Ease of handling
Initially when I filed the claim online, I was erroneously informed to contact the manufacturer because I was still under their warranty. I learned that I was not. It’s for this reason they got 4 stars instead of 5.
I had to call and explain to Assurion. Once I did that they honored the extended warranty with no complications. I just had to return the defective device to them, they provided all prepaid UPS slip and I took it to UPS. They sent an Amazon gift card (via email) less than 48 hours after my UPS drop off. I enjoyed the ease of everything. Just make sure you call instead of handling the claim online. A person is always better.
