A Canadian editor put together in his 1988 anthology of Filipino poetry in English the works of Macario Tiu, Agustin Pagusara Jr., Edicio de la Torre, Felipe Granrojo (a pen name), Isagani Serrano, Mila Aguilar, Edgar Maranan, Jose Maria Sison, and Alan V. Jazmines. There are scores of writers whose works appear in other anthologies: Cesario Y. Torres, Jose F. Lacaba, Maria Lorena Barros, Francisco Rodrigo, Benigno Aquino Jr., Bienvenido Lumbera, Lilia Quindoza, Bonifacio Ilagan, Mano de Verdades Posadas (a pen name), Carlos Humberto (a pen name), Aida Santos, Romeo Dizon, and many others whose protest works will never be in the literary canon unless scholars adjust their formalist criteria and retrieve these works, which are reflexively shunted aside by the establishment.
