The article focuses on the problem of contemporary children's folklore in the Czech Republic - specifically, on songs and rhymes that include names of famous personalities or of film and literary heroes. These songs circulate in children's groups by word of mouth, without any intervention from part of adults. They are characterized by coarse expressions and unsophisticated childish humor. Precisely because of their coarseness these folklore forms are being passed on outside the influence of adults. Even though on the first sight these songs are simple parodies on songs popular at given moment, in fact many of them have outlived several generations. The oldest song included in our collection has been passed over for at least 70 years. Of course, songs about celebrities loose some of their currency with the passing of the time - for example, the rhymes about famous sportsmen. In the 1990s, a song about Soviet astronautics died out, due to the fact that the propaganda that stimulated its humorousness also disappeared. The most popular heroes of children's poetry are the personalities from movies based on books of Karl May (Vinnetou, Old Shatterhand etc.), as well as some famous historical personalities. Besides, there are songs about pop singers, less frequent are those about politicians or sportsmen. Also, there are only few about fairy tales personalities. Melodically these songs are based either on folk songs, or on current hits or theme tunes from TV series. Those children's songs based on traditional songs proved to have much longer lifespan.

In the children´s world, the communication runs in various forms different from those typical for the communication of the adults. Humorous verses, by means of which mainly the children of the same age communicate within the environment distant from their family background, represent special forms of contacts. Despite the long-term tradition in researching the children´s folklore, Czech ethnology remains a debtor in this field, not only in the field of basic research, but also especially in the field of interdisciplinary study. As to the formal and aesthetical standpoint, the rhythm and rhyme are primary features of children´s output, namely at the expense of all other elements. However, the motifs of individual rhymed expresses, the humour, the ratio of perceiving the vulgarity of certain words, the trust in the truth of expressions acquired at transmission among the children of the same age and especially the motivation to create the verses- all the above is significantly influenced by the age of a child. Many questions in this field can be answered by the developmental psychology and the psychoanalysis.

(Slovak title: Literarne pojmoslovie Bohuslava Tablica II. Pojem poetske umeni a jeho varianty v kontexte Tablicovych literarnohistorickych reflexii). Bohuslav Tablic used several variants of terms to determine poetic activity. He characterized ability of authors to write in verse form and according to the poetic rules. That way he depicted poetic activity and distinguished it from the other types of literary works. He used the terms not in perfect systematic order that is why their distinctive features are not always understandable. Following the context of his work, we think that he also determined the types of poetic techniques. He distinguished inner structure of verse according to two principles: 1. an organisation of the poetic text, according to the quantitative metre, 2. some parts of metre were organized according to strict scheme, based on the rhythm and intonation of syllabic verse. The quality of poetic text was not generated from the quality of the poetic art of authors and the quality of poetic technique. Following the poetic rules strictly was not for him an inevitable condition to meet the taste of readers.
