pamphlet
OAB Definition
small book, typically made of one section, sewn through the fold.
The word pamphlet comes from a popular 12th century Latin poem that was often copied and circulated in a small booklet. The main character’s name, Pamphilus, is a Greek name that translates to “beloved of all.”
Historically pamphlets were ephemeral products that housed articles of general interest, often being used to convey contentious political views.
