AbstractBhiksuni Hiu Wan (1912-2004) was born in Nanhai, Guangdong. Recognized as an eminent Buddhist nun in Taiwan, she also achieved international renown. She had a profound impact and made outstanding contributions to Buddhist art, literature, and education, especially in Taiwan. She also founded Huafan University, the first university established by the Buddhist community in Taiwan, which emphasized “Awakening Education” and students’ cultivation of virtues. She completed a “Grand World Tour” through dozens of countries, from Southeast Asia to Japan, Europe, and the United States. Although she is not the first woman who traveled and recorded her voyage in the modern period, she was the first Buddhist nun who traveled the world alone and bequeathed a record of her travels in a variety of media – poems, diaries, prose, and paintings.

Today, in a climate flourishing with women travel writers and Buddhist women exploring the world, Bhiksuni Hiu Wan’s Grand World Tour stands as a significant model. The diverse texts that record what she saw and heard are significant contributions to a genealogy of alternative female travel writing. In this paper, I will explore Bhiksuni Hiu Wan’s motivation and goal in traveling, the cultural value of her texts, her aesthetic achievements, and historical significance. I will also discuss the values evident in her views of the world and the significance of creating a genealogy of Buddhist travel literature within contemporary women’s travel writing.

曉雲法師(1912-2004)廣東南海人。為臺灣與國際知名的佛教高僧,在佛學、文學藝術與教育都有重要影響與貢獻,所創辦的華梵大學為中國佛教史上第一所佛教興辦的大學,強調覺之教育,注重學子的品德涵養。她在1960年代的寰宇壯遊,足跡遍及東南亞與歐美日等數十個國家,雖然她非近代以來女性遊歷且有文本的第一人,卻是佛教女性隻身走向世界,且留下詩歌、日記、散文與繪畫多樣文本的第一人。在現代佛教女性走向世界與女性遊歷書寫蓬勃發展的風氣中,曉雲法師的寰宇壯遊有典範作用,其記錄見聞的多樣文本則有另類女性遊歷書寫的系譜意義。本文擬分析曉雲法師遊歷的動機與目的、文本的文化價值、審美成就與時代意義,論述其觀看世界的角度所提供的價值,以及在現代女性遊歷書寫中佛教旅遊文學的系譜意義。
