!!!Feuilleton

Feuilleton (French for "leaflet"), originally (18%%sup th/%  century) 
a special supplement in French newspapers devoted to advertisements 
and announcements. The concept of the feuilleton was introduced in 
Vienna by the daily newspaper "Die Presse", established in 1848 and 
modeled after the French daily "La Presse", which encouraged a light 
and entertaining style known as "feuilletonism". A Viennese-style 
feuilleton arose featuring writers such as F.  Kuernberger, L.  
Speidel, D.  Spitzer and F.  Schloegl as well as P.  Altenberg, V. 
Auburtin and A.  Polgar in the 20%%sup th/%  century. The feuilleton 
as a newspaper section was replaced by a (more comprehensive) culture 
section after World War II. Some magazine shows on radio and 
television still maintain the feuilleton style in their features.
