Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French Pamphilet.

Etymology: < Middle French Pamphilet, a familiar name of the 12th-cent. Latin amatory poem or comedy Pamphilus, seu de Amore (1373–1424 in a catalogue of manuscripts in the Library of the Louvre; c1245 in Old French as Panfilès ) < post-classical Latin Pamphilus , personal name (ancient Greek Πάμϕιλος , lit. ‘beloved of all’) + Middle French -et -et suffix¹. The extended sense is apparently not attested in Middle French, but does occur in post-classical Latin in British sources: panfletus (1344), paunflettus (1388), pamfletus (?a1400), all in sense ‘short treatise’.The amatory poem of Pamphilus was extremely popular in the Middle Ages and was translated into French and other vernaculars: see W. Blumenthal in Mittellat. Jahrb. (1976) 11 245–311 and the critical edition by F. G. Becker (1972). With the familiar French name Pamphilet compare the familiar names of other small works similarly formed with French -et -et suffix¹, e.g. Old French Chatonez, Chatonnet the Distichs of (pseudo-) Cato, Isopet the Fables of Aesop. The poem is mentioned as Panflet in the Middle Dutch Floris ende Blancefloer of Diederik van Assenede (c1260) I. 333, where it is said of the hero and heroine ‘Ende mense oec te lesene sette In Juvenale ende in Panflette, Ende in Ovidio de Arte Amandi’ (And they were set also to read In Juvenal and in Panflet, And in Ovid's ‘Art of Loving’). As to its popularity, the students of the University of Paris were rebuked because they preferred this erotic production to more edifying reading. The poem was also well known in England and is mentioned or alluded to in Chaucer, Gower, and Skelton: see P. Bawcutt in Medium Ævum (1995) 64 264–72. The English word was reborrowed by French (1705; earlier from 1653 in quotations of English texts, see Trésor de la langue française at pamphlet) and subsequently passed into many other European languages; compare e.g. German Pamphlet (18th cent.), Italian pamphlet (a1764), Swedish pamflett (1775), Dutch pamflet (1790).

†a. A short handwritten work or document of several pages fastened together; a handwritten poem, tract, or treatise. Obsolete.
