Although structuralism originated in the late 1920s in Czechoslovakia, the important breakthroughs by the scholars of the Prague Linguistic Circle remained largely unknown to the practitioners of French structuralism. This paper identifies some of the areas where Czech and French structuralism diverge. Nevertheless, some of the principles of Czech structuralism were to find their way into French research such as Roman Jakobson’s functional model of verbal communication. A number of points of comparison between the two structuralisms including Roland Barthes’ “activité structuraliste” or Gérard Genette’s aesthetics are briefly discussed. Greater historiographic knowledge of the two research traditions has the potential to enrich our understanding of issues that have so far been insufficiently explored and to open new perspectives.
