I just joined this platform. I work for a publishing company in Japan, koushokankoukai.

[Mod: Removed link to webstore]

The colleague who specialized in occult books is no longer with our publisher, and I'm still learning the field.

If you know of any books that you believe should be translated into Japanese, I would be very grateful if you could let me know.

welcome to the forum hope you enjoy your time here!

it really depends on what part of the occult your inter in can you give some examples of previously published work?

off the top of my head

the following books by Jake Stratton Kent they deal withe spirit/daemon summoning and cover a good deal of the old grimoires
Pandemonium
The True grimoire
Geosophia I & II
The Testament of Cyprian the Mage: Volume 1 and 2


Mastering witchcraft by Paul Huson
Apocalyptic Witchcraft Peter Grey
Lucifer praxis and princeps by Peter Grey
SHE of the Night by Idlu Lili Regulus
cult of the black cube by Dr. Arthur Moros

these are some new highlights but depending on what subjects your interested in there are tons of good books out there.

examples include:
daemonolatry
astral travel.
herbal magic the poison path or green path
traditional witchcraft
Wiccan
paganism all different kinds
palo mayombe

a ton more

Probably the same books I would recommend to new occultists:



Also, I have removed the link to your website. I am sure it is not your intention to advertise Japanese translations of books on an English-only website, but it is still against the rules to post links to website which have stores or sell products/services.

Glad you found WF, and I hope it will be useful in helping you learn enough to take over your predecessor.

Thank you for the detailed information.

MacGregor Mathers, Dion Fortune, Rudolf Steiner, Donald Michael Kraig, Johannes Hartlieb, Tommaso Campanella, Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki, Peter J. Carroll, William G. Gray, Gerald Schueler, Chic Cicero & Sandra Tabatha Cicero, Margot Adler, Doreen Valiente, Raymond Buckland, Marian Green, and Starhawk.

I'll look into the authors you mentioned as well.

Thanks a lot! Are there any publishers with particularly striking book cover designs?

I looked through your catalog you have some really good stuff. allot of the fundamentals I would say.
as far as carol I would look into Liber Null and psychonaut

condensed chaos by Phil Hine
The three books of occult philosophy specifically the version by Eric Perdue

oh and The Greek Magical Papyri in translation by Hanz Dieter Betz

not so much cover designs but as far as beautiful high quality books in general Theion publishing does some amazing work. the Auric editions they put out are often art in themselves. they also have some good illustrations and thing too.

I like the way the incorporation of H. R. Gigers art your company's done.

if you need an artist I would love to do some work for ya, forgive my shameless plug tho lol
