Originating at the close of 2012, the Versification Research Group puts together verse theory experts from various departments of the Institute (including Theory Department, Editorial and Textological Department, and Department for Research into 19th-century Literature). The group continues the tradition of the original versification research team of the Institute of Czech and Foreign Literatures, CSAS, which was composed of the members of the then Textology Department (Miroslav Červenka, Stanislava Mazáčová, Milada Chlíbcová, and others, and the external researcher Květa Sgallová). The team's research activities are put into practice in individual and collective projects.
