Abstract
The article examines the Legend of Yakov Lanshakov, a Siberian peasant’s tale describing his illness, the visions he had received in a «subtle dream», and his keeping of a vow to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. The analysis of the text shows that in the work the pilgrimage plot manifests itself in two ways: as a pilgrimage to Jerusalem in vision and in reality, and as a pilgrimage to the holy places of Russia. The images, motives and themes characteristic of both plots are outlined.
