Abstract

In the last two decades, domestic science has been enriched by a corpus of works describing pilgrimages to the Holy Land in the 19th – early 20th centuries. This happened thanks to intensive archeographic research in Russian archives, which have preserved many texts of different genres that tell about the pilgrimage to Jerusalem. The article presents an overview of a number of such works preserved in manuscripts and / or recently published, and considers the principles that can make it possible to assess the relevance of expanding the source base for the study of domestic pilgrimage literature. These principles are based on the evaluation of the content of the work, the time of the pilgrimage, the social status of the author, the integrity of the text and the degree of its originality.
