Rhythm is a concept, which is possible to employ in various contexts. This article imagines the normal understanding of rhythm as true structures and against which stand the understanding of the opposition of meter versus rhythm in the Czech versological tradition or the French ‘neoplatonic’ approach to rhythm with an emphasis on meaning and subject. This article is devoted as well to the rhythm of the spoken output of various languages and reminds on the division of languages by isochrony and isosyllabism. It will further examine the role of rhythmic language types in a selection of versifying systems and other circumstances, which influence these choices. The final part of the article will concern the rhythmical experiments of Otakar Theer and his drama Faëthón, perhaps one of the most expansive Czech texts written in accentual verse.

The main subject of this text is a description of the Polish and German theory of verse in comparison to the Czech research tradition. It deals in detail with the Polish concept of versification and presents possible reasons for the similarities and differences between Czech and Polish literary theory and practice in this field. The paper also considers other differences that have yet to be systematically investigated, as framed by the comparison of Czech and German theories of verse. A fundamental difference can be found in the use of the category of versification, and in a terminology strongly influenced by the tradition of accentual verse in the German tradition. The text also describes the evolution of versification in German literature from accentual to syllabotonic (accentual-syllabic), in contrast to Czech literature, which evolved from syllabic to syllabotonic versification.
