Summary/Abstract: The paper is closely connected with that published in Judaica Bohemiae, vol. XX/1984, No. 1. The analysis of the literary structure of Hebrew lyrico-epic poetry of the 17th century is based on religious poetry (selihoth) by Efraim Luntschitz, Yom Tov Lipman Heller, Shimshon Bacharach, Moshe Birgel, and others. The authoress studies the composition of the selihoth, their verse and strophical structure, language, syntax and also refers to the context of contemporary Hebrew literature.
