Verš raného Karla Tomana.

Following on from work by Miloš Sedmidubský, this study deals with syllabic irregularity (heterogeneity) in Toman's (and Vrchlický's) verse. It focuses on Toman's early work, analysing individual poems and collections (particularly Pohádky krve, Tales of Blood, 1898 and Torzo života, Torso of Life, 1902). The material base is made up of 350 poems, and the differences between individual sets are checked by means of statistical tests. Syllabic irregularity is expressed in terms of entropy.
