With origins dating back to 1478, Oxford University Press (OUP) is the world's largest university press with the widest global presence. Our Global Academic Publishing program spans the entire academic and higher education spectrum, including a wide array of scholarly and general interest books, journals, and online products. At OUP, we believe in the power of the written word and the scholarship that stands behind it. Everything we publish relates directly to our mission: to support Oxford University's objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education. As a press, we take pride in this mission, which allows us to enable, support, and facilitate research and scholarship.

Our mission is to make the best scholarship and research available to as many people as we can. To make this possible, OUP works with world-renowned scholars at the top of their fields. The delegates of each subject serve as stewards over the publishing in their general subject area—history, music, science, philosophy, etc.—and approve each publication with the assistance of professors familiar with the work in question who have read and reviewed it in detail. What is so exceptional about this process is both how well it works and that it is practically unheard of outside of scholarly publishing. We hold all of our publishing to this standard, so our readers can be assured that they are benefitting from the highest quality content.  

OUP publishes authoritative works in many fields of interest. We are proud to publish such accomplished authors as James McPherson, Alan Brinkley, Richard Dawkins, William Safire, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and Rachel Carson. Our Higher Education publishing program offers students and professors the highest quality materials for teaching and learning. Our reference group  creates comprehensive resources to support every kind of research need. Our medical and legal teams  publish practical research tailored to the needs of their professional audiences. Our trade and academic publishing serves the translational purpose of introducing the general public to some of the brightest minds and most relevant research in academia. OUP's Journals  program publishes more than 300 journals in the humanities, social sciences, and medicine that bring high-quality research to the widest possible audience.

Some good titles by Oxford, we suggest are:

  • Ancient Philosophy, Mystery, and Magic
  • Oxford Illustrated History of Witchcraft and Magic
  • Magic, Witchcraft and Ghosts in the Greek and Roman Worlds
  • Curse Tablets and Binding Spells from the Ancient World
  • Oxford Readings in Greek Religion
  • Hekate Soteira
  • Magika Hiera

Theurgy and Philosophy are two different methods which lead to the union with God.
