Summary/Abstract: K. H. MÁCHA (1810-1836) was celebrated as a unique romantic poet in reflections as well as in description. He was also known as a master of the Czech language and rhyming in it. These abilities were revealed at the beginning of his poetic career. Two important poems of this period Der Eremit [The Hermit] written in German and Svatý Ivan [Saint Ivan] rhymed in Czech – are the proof of MACHA’s skill of euphemistic usage of both German and Czech languages. In comparison with the works of F. BRIDEL, F. A. ROKOS, K. S. ŠNAJDR and Ch. SCHMID MACHA’s creative originality is clearly evident.
