Description The goal of the article is a synchron-diachronic analysis of possible word order positions of the pronominal clitics (se, si, ho, mu, mi, ti, tě) in non-finite verbal phrases in Baroque Czech. This article is based on data collected from a corpus of Czech Baroque prints representing different genres and styles of the Czech language of this period (from 1650 to 1750). The analysis is focused on the interpretation of factors governing the word order of pronominal clitics (grammatical factors, rhythmical factors, factors of the functional sentence perspective and stylistic factors).
