How To Write an Annotation
  • Created by Essay-Academy.com

What is an Annotation?
  • An annotation is supposed to persuade the reader
    to read the work. It is an enhanced summary of a
    publication, article or a book.
  • The author of an annotation should be able to
    guide the reader and examine the work so it would
    be clear whether it needs to be read or not.

3
What is an Annotation?
  • Annotations are used in bibliographies which are
    an essential part to any scholarly article.
  • The best way to organize a bibliography is to
    provide discussion on how the literature is
    related to each other.

Annotation writing tips
  • Authors of the works should be clearly identified
    along with their degrees and qualifications.
  • In case when a writer or a scientist is
    well-known, it is allowed to exclude
    qualifications.
  • It is recommended to include this information in
    the first sentence of annotation paragraph.
  • For example, Gregg H. Popovich, an American
    sociology professor at Houston University, used
    historical documents to base his research.

Annotation writing tips
  • The author of an annotation should provide the
    main purpose and the scope of the text.
  • It is recommended to make one or two sentences.
  • For example, He describes that Swedes played an
    extremely important role in the uprising in the
    region. They supplied funding, rifles and war
    ships and helped to initiate the uprising.
  • You need to be as clear as possible and keep the
    length of no more than 150 words.

Annotation writing tips
  • Relate the work to other ones in the field. For
    example, Dennis Johnsons conclusions are
    similar to those in Blake Griffins Uprising in
    the Baltic.
  • Relation of the theme to the position of author
    should also be described On the other hand,
    Johnsons position is supported by
    pro-revolutionary concept, which was examined by
    the reviewer.

Annotation writing tips
  • In the final sentence of the annotation you need
    to include a comment which summarizes the content
    of the book This specific scientific work
    provides new information which will be of
    interest to informed readers and scholars.
  • There are other elements in annotations but if
    you describe mentioned points it is enough for
    your work to be submitted.
