The article presents the biography of one of Toruń’s late medieval parish priests, with emphasis on the attempt to reconstruct the identity of the priest. Hieronim Waldau (about 1427–1495) left behind records of a private and historical nature, which enabled such research. Despite being a collection of individual notes, the narrative of the parish priest turned out to be valuable material for research on various aspects of self-identity, which was presented here in it's individual and social perspective both in sociological and psychological terms. Such a perspective, hitherto not employed in the biographistics of the Russian clergy, constitutes an important contribution to the definition of the self-awareness of the clergy, which was an important element of their social role.
