Feuilleton

A feuilleton (French pronunciation: [fœjtɔ̃]; a diminutive of French: feuillet, the leaf of a book) was originally a kind of supplement attached to the political portion of French newspapers, consisting chiefly of non-political news and gossip, literature and art criticism, a chronicle of the latest fashions, and epigrams, charades and other literary trifles.^[1] The term feuilleton was invented by the editors of the French Journal des débats; Julien Louis Geoffroy and Bertin the Elder, in 1800. The feuilleton has been described as a "talk of the town",^[2] and a contemporary English-language example of the form is the "Talk of the Town" section of The New Yorker.^[3] In English newspapers, the term instead came to refer to an installment of a serial story printed in one part of a newspaper.^[1]
