Summary/Abstract: The article presents extracts from the denunciations of security apparatus informers from the People's Republic of Poland regarding selected Jesuits from the Greater Poland-Masovia Province of the Society of Jesus. The article lists the areas of interest of the ministry of security to individual monks. The analysis of the documentation showed that the security apparatus carried out an insightful description of the monk. The security department created a comprehensive and synthetic image of a given Jesuit. He learned about his character traits, the opinions of his confreres about him, functions in the order, strengths and weaknesses, or his attitude towards state authorities. Knowledge in this area was obtained on the basis of many years of research and analysis of documents left by the Security Service in the archives of the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN).
