Verš a žánr. Skica k předválečné tvorbě Viktora Dyka

The article deals with versified works of Viktor Dyk from the pre-war period (1897–1914) written in iambic pentameter. It analyses the relationship between the texts’ genre (lyric, satire, drama) and their rhythmic features (frequencies of stressing the line-initial and line-final syllables, frequencies of enjambment). The article concludes that Dyk’s lyric poems as well as his drama tend to employ features generally perceived as more literary compared to his satire.
