This series consists of poetry in English. The majority of items are handmade chapbooks, and a number of important small presses from the UK are well represented, such as Enitharmon Press, Fulcrum Press, The Menard Press, and The Sceptre Press. This collection shows Matthias' deep interest and involvement with poetry in the UK, for example in the number of works by Richard Burns - with whom Matthias was well acquainted - and poetry by Duncan Glen written in Scots. A small number of elaborate fine press items are also included (see Folders 19, 122), as well as publications by both colleagues and former students from the University of Notre Dame.
