The Oxford University Press published a long series of poetry anthologies, dealing in particular with British poetry but not restricted to it, after the success of the Oxford Book of English Verse (1900). The Oxford poetry anthologies ('Oxford Books') are traditionally seen as 'establishment' in attitude, and routinely therefore are subjects of discussion and contention. They have been edited both by well-known poets and by distinguished academics. In the limited perspective of canon-formation, they have mostly been retrospective and well-researched, rather than breaking fresh ground. They include: New Oxford Book of English Verse 1250-1950 (1972) edited by Helen Gardner The New Oxford Book of English Light Verse (1978) compilation and introduction by Kingsley Amis Oxford Anthology of English Poetry (1990) edited by John Wain Oxford Book of American Light Verse (1979) edited by William Harmon Oxford Book of English Verse (1999) edited by Christopher Ricks Oxford Book of Irish Verse (1958) edited by Donagh MacDonagh and Lennox Robinson New Oxford Book of Irish Verse (1986) edited by Thomas Kinsella Oxford Book of English Mystical Verse (1917) edited by Daniel Howard Sinclair Nicholson and Arthur Hugh Evelyn Lee.
