Event-tip

Notes of this type make up, so to speak, the main flow of information in the press publications. The main content of these notes is a factual description. Selection of an independent genre view possible based on originality of the display object. As such, in the event-note typically perform a variety of events, as well as the situation in this or that sphere of activity.

Announcement

This information formed the genre of notes, which are preventive messages about the future of all kinds of cultural events, exhibitions, concerts and so on. The name “announcement” is translated from the English “announce” as a “message”, “proclamation”, “classified”. Without this kind of operational messages is difficult to imagine the press, because they attract the public for all sorts of activities, mainly committed in the cultural life of the community (but of course, and not only in this area).

Despite the proximity to the declaration of the announcement is a separate kind of publications. The difference (albeit slight) between the announcement and the announcement (as they exist in modern Russian press) above consists in the fact that the ads perform notification function is not only about what and where something will happen, but that is already happening, or It happened. In addition, ads are pursuing a purely utilitarian purposes, does not claim to be any sort was to present the details, history “events”, its causes, modalities.

The purpose of the publication of this type is not so much to inform the audience about the appearance, the existence of a new edition, as to briefly describe its quality. In the summary reports on the major, “nodal” moments emerged the phenomenon (its title, author or an author, publisher or producer, subject, content, time of occurrence, the goal of a). Annotation is one of the main genres of specialized periodicals, but quite often, the publication of this genre appeared in periodicals and other plan.

Sometimes annotation called mini-review. With this you cannot agree, because every review, including at the mini-reviews, different purpose than that of the announcement.

Mini review
