The Century Company, Publishers was an American publishing company founded in 1881. It was originally a subsidiary of Charles Scribner's Sons, named Scribners and Company, but was bought by Roswell Smith and renamed by him after the Century Association, a New York City club of artists, writers, and intellectuals. The magazine that the company had published up to that time, Scribners Monthly, was renamed The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine, which became one of the most popular and influential magazines of its time.
