Oneworld Classics is an independent publisher with offices in London (Richmond) and Oxford. Launched in March 2007 by the directors of Oneworld Publications and Alma Books, its aim is to expand the literary canon in the English-speaking world through a series of mainstream and lesser-known classics, often by commissioning new translations.

In September 2007, Oneworld Classics acquired the legendary Calder Publications list - which includes works by Pirandello, Artaud, Duras, Trocchi, Céline, Queneau, Ionesco and Robbe-Grillet, among many others - and the Calder Bookshop on The Cut, near Waterloo, famous for its eclectic events programme.
