-It must have been around 1980, and instead of frequenting internet one only could go to libraries. It is hard to remember how I came across them. Maybe someone mentioned them, maybe they were on a pile of returned documents which the librarians had to store again in the archive. They were in a box, some old pages, printed recto-verso, half an A4 probably, 13x20cm or smaller, they looked hundreds of years old. +It must have been around 1980, and instead of frequenting internet one only could go to libraries. It is hard to remember how I came across them. Maybe someone mentioned them, maybe they were on a pile of returned documents which the librarians had to store again in the archive. They were in a box, some old pages, printed recto-verso, half an A4 probably, 13x20cm or smaller, they looked hundreds of years old. They proved to be from the early 19th century. 
  
-1980 came across Vliegende bladen +They were labeled "Vliegende Bladen" (NL), considered the wrong translation of “Feuilles Volantes”, and contained a collection of poems and songs, sung by anonymous travelling singers, accompanied by a drum or violin. Most of them were composed on well known folk melodies, so the audience could easily hum along. In some cases the performer would simply pluck one string of a fiddle. Maybe they were not professional musicians at all, but then again, professionality is and was always very different from virtuosity. 
-= foute vertaling van “Feuilles Volantes” +
-In the collection Straatzangers traveling  +
-Media related: social history of information  +
-Creative involvement and sold for income +
-Songs about economy politics social work +
-War (for instance Serbia Bosnia) +
  
-Later pamphlets in 20thC art history +More of interest was the content, which ranged from domestic issues, theft, murders and natural disasters, fantastic and romantic stories, to political and social critique. Suddenly I found vivid evocations about the war in Bosnia, the fighting in a war against the Dutch, the revolt of the spinners and cotton weavers in the early industrial revolution, famine on the countryside,... They were written in a direct but poetic language, addressing news items to an at that time 90% and more illiterate audience. As such these wandering poets/musicians were part of an important media channel. They lived from their poetic efforts and were selling these Feuilles Volantes for a couple of cents. The box contained pamphlets coming from the same specialized printer, sometimes decorated with the first lines of the melodies. It was obvious they were taking side of the poor peasant population and the exploited factory workers, men and women, children, at the moment that no political parties existed yet. They were the radio and television, newspapers and storytellers for the general population. What's more, they were shared among the singers across the European continent, translated, put to different folk melodies, and adapted to new events.  
-As protest as aesthetical Manifesto (futurism +
-Still later and recently like everything used in war +
-For indoctrination and false news during energy +
-Breakdown and to create fear for/during destruction +
  
-Also now during the 21C world wars (XXIww) +------
-In the light of the suicidal destruction of our habitats +
-On all levels: +
-* aggressively cannibalistic (the killing urge, the wars) +
-* environmental hierarchies (city problems rule) +
-* social/cultural/political without ideology anymore +
-* The loss of solidarity/education/Collab +

 "Feuilles volantes" is a French term that translates to "flying leaves" in English. Similar to the previous context, it can be used to refer to loose or flying sheets of paper. The term is often used to describe printed materials like flyers, leaflets, or handbills that are distributed by hand or scattered in the air during events, promotions, or campaigns. "Feuilles volantes" is a French term that translates to "flying leaves" in English.

 Imagery or Metaphor: The phrase could also be used metaphorically to describe a situation where numerous small and light elements are scattered or moving freely, resembling the way leaves might scatter in the wind. This could be applied to various contexts, such as ideas, thoughts, or objects. Imagery or Metaphor: The phrase could also be used metaphorically to describe a situation where numerous small and light elements are scattered or moving freely, resembling the way leaves might scatter in the wind.
