Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this sketch is to present the most important features of the model of “clercism” according to Irzykowski, especially those that prove its originality and distinctiveness. The starting point is an analysis of what qualities Irzykowski looked for in potential “clercs” and from what groups of intellectuals he chose potential adepts. The point of arrival is an attempt to distinguish Irzykowski’s individual vision among other models of clercism.
