The Madras Literary Society was founded in 1812 and in 1830 it became associated with the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland and renamed the Madras Literary Society and Auxiliary of the Royal Asiatic Society. It was founded by Sir John Henry Newbolt, Chief Justice of Madras, with Benjamin Guy Babington as the founder secretary. The Society produced a journal called the Transactions of the Literary Society of Madras and, from 1833, under the name of the Madras Journal of Literature and Science. The journal ceased publication in 1894.
