Abstract
This article presents a study of the genesis and evolution of the Belarusian iambic tetrameter. A diachronic account of iambic patterns from the earliest samples to late-twentieth-century texts reveals a steady decomposition of the classical continental accentual-syllabic versification. The Belarusian iamb is studied alongside its apparent Russian sources in order to determine any possible comparative relations.
