Abstract

Rather early on in my life I had become aware of a sense of belonging to the intelligentsia. The awareness was there long before I even began thinking about what the word meant. Later I’d often ask myself to what extent I had the right to count myself a member of that subset of the citizenry. Here the word “citizenry” is important, since a member of the intelligentsia must be a citizen in that lofty sense of the word that has come down to us from antiquity. A member of the intelligentsia is, as I understand it, not merely an educated citizen, but a person of certain definite moral principles.
