The scientific research reveals the characteristics of the festival as a cultural form, defines its structure, functions and social purpose. General and special features of the festival as a festive practice are described (its purpose, ontological foundations, cultural potential). The research methodology focused on the systematic approach allowed to apply the comparative, historical and cultural, typological and analytical methods. The ability of the festival to improve social relations, smooth over difficulties and misunderstandings caused by intercultural diversity, create a single cultural space indicates that in the modern world the leading function of the festival is integration and differentiation. The study justifies that in order to initiate systematic festival practices in territorial communities one should take into consideration the following factors: the significance of the cultural potential of the festival; the ability of cultural practices to influence the economic situation of the settlement; the impossibility to realize the festival potential without the support of the government and understanding the importance of culture as social capital by its representatives; the co-ordination of common interests between the cultural and artistic environment and the local community; having a common understanding of social and cultural problems and ways to solve them. The author proves that the festival, forming an open symbolic and cultural space for dialogue, acts as a «cultural mediator» between different social groups of society. The implementation of communicative, educational, entertainment functions and the function of a direct participation contributes to achieving the goal. In modern society, the festival is not only a powerful factor in strengthening social capital as such, which stimulates the economic, cultural, and educational development of the local community; the festival represents and, at the same time, produces patterns of cultural development for the near future. It creates its own cultural product, actualizing modern culture, as it combines different cultural practices in a single project.

ЖАНРОВІ ІННОВАЦІЇ В СУЧАСНИХ УКРАЇНСЬКИХ МАСМЕДІА

The article expertly comments on the trend of genre innovations in modern Ukrainian mass media. The author's argumentation is based on the functional evolution of the literary language, which is reflected in the change of the style's communicative nature, in particular, media.

The situation of genre forms' modeling according to the criteria of syncretism, updated in time and space of modern Ukrainian-language communication, is commented on, which is connected with the need of recipients to perceive information from the media not linearly, but constructively – multifaceted and variable. It results in the active emergence of genre variants, actualized in the media space, which modify its functional and stylistic resource and potential. Genre innovations are interpreted in the context of a professional analysis of language show genre new for national media, which appears as a communicative invariant of intellect show and is synchronized with the style of the edutainment format. Language factology attests the conceptualization of the cultural and linguistic context of social communication in Ukrainian language, which is based on current rules, established tradition, and transitional forms that undergo communicative adaptation. Thus, the novelty of the genre is formulated, which consists in the intellectual understanding of the communicative nature of Ukrainian language in media space. The mass audience gets an objective opportunity to participate in the comprehension and understanding of the processes that indicate the dynamics of the literary language, its norms and exceptions. The thesis is proved that new for the media language show genre is a syncretic phenomenon in terms of functional and stylistic resource and genre nature, which is based on a communicatively motivated combination of information and entertainment functions. Information in this case relies on the cognitive context of verbalization, as it concerns the actualization of cognitive processes of the development of mass language consciousness, which is provided by the creolized resource of media entertainment.

Nigerian Popular Music: Social Mediation Amid Musicality

Music is a fundamental feature of the African society. One of its indispensable values is its entertainment function. Music has also been used overtime to engender positive social changes in the society. Using this popular medium, traditional African musicians and poets have used their composing ingenuity not only to please their audience but also to lampoon, satirize, moralize, preach and call for individual and collective changes or conformity to established social, religious, or cultural norms, as the circumstances dictate. In Nigeria’s recent past, the late Fela Anikulapo- Kuti, Sunny Okosun, Ebenezer Obey, and Osita Osadebe are examples of musicians who used their music to comment on the challenges of life in Nigeria and elsewhere. They also gained popularity from the entertainment value of their various kinds of music.

This paper concludes that social relevance and commercial success are two states which can be achieved simultaneously by emerging Nigerian musicians without apprehension, especially in a world which rates commercial success as a parameter for popularity.

Інверсія «небесного» і «земного» у святкових практиках європейського середньовіччя

The article attempts to reveal the peculiarities of the formation and functioning of cultural practices of the Middle Ages in the dichotomous system of «heavenly» and «earthly»; to substantiate the prerequisites for the emergence of new forms of festive culture (religious and secular); their functional and content load. The basis of the scientific research methodology was the historical and cultural approach, which allowed, on the one hand, to take into account the specifics of this historical stage of human development, and, on the other hand, to trace the interdependence of social, political and ideological conditions with the festive culture. As a result, the author proves that medieval holidays depended on the natural and church calendars, which controlled and adjusted the cultural activities of society. In order to strengthen its ideological influence on public opinion, the church resorted to the direct prohibition of certain holidays; synthesis of Pre-Christian beliefs and theological dogmas; introduction of a new system of holidays. During the Middle Ages, a knightly culture was formed, saturated with multifaceted festive practices and a culture of entertainers; urban holidays were born and developed, the main consumer of which was the burgher with the corresponding lifestyle and system of behavior; the carnival and folk square holiday practices that combined the binary oppositions of medieval consciousness arose. Festive culture became a factor capable of synthesizing the medieval society into a single integrity. It solved a number of social tasks, among which the prioritized were the functions of competitiveness, entertainment, social solidarity and formation of public opinion. Religion, permeating all spheres of medieval society, was profaned in the need to express the Absolute and the Divine. Therefore, even church events (temple days, mysteries, sotie), gradually enriched with entertainment elements, were perceived as festive leisure. In the festive culture, full of emotional pleasure, positive energy and complimentary communication, a sense of one's own meaning and creative freedom, independent of conventional categories, was born.

O elementach fantastyki w literaturze XVI i XVII wieku. Wizje niezwykłych krain, państw i miast

The purpose of the article is to present elements of fantasy in selected works of old literature. It focuses above all on presenting the amazing places shown in literary works created in the 16th and 17th centuries. The author also shows similarities between fantasy, fairy tale, and utopia. Science fiction was created on the basis of utopia or anti-utopia, which lost their cognitive functions and began to discuss the characters’ adventures in such a way as to primarily provide entertainment to readers.

Their main role, however, was not to fulfill the entertainment function. It was only in the 19th century that leisure literature was discovered, when the ability to read and access to the text spread.
