元代是中國歷史上較為獨特的朝代，一則是由蒙古人掌握政權，國祚並不長；二則由於貿易與海上交通的發展，除了展現多元文化的交融外，亦提供文學創作更為自由與活潑的滋養。過去論及元代文學，多視之為文學發展的停滯期，雜劇和散曲是為代表，至於散文則少受關注。若有論及，往往視其為仰望宋人文章，並未能開創具體鮮明特色。王惲在金元之際已有文名，世祖詔令多出其手。本身受到中國傳統文化的陶冶與積累，於元初亦多入仕宦行列，對當世文風影響甚鉅。歷代文士遊歷一地後，記錄聞見感懷之作，所在多有。本文以王惲之記遊文章作為考察重心，試圖由微觀角度分析元代前期遊類散文的特徵，使之對元文篇章結構特色有較清楚的認識，並觀察元人於此文類寄予之關懷面向，進而掌握元代前期散文的藝術風貌。

Yuan Dynasty is relatively unique in Chinese history. Firstly, the Mongols' control of power did not last long in this period. Secondly, due to the development of trade and maritime transport, different cultures often interacted and helped produce more liberal and creative literary works. Wang Yun was famous in the literary field in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties, as he wrote most of the imperial decrees. As an official in the early Yuan Dynasty, he has a significant impact on modern literature. This article analyzes Wang Yun's travelogues to gain a better understanding of the literary works in the Yuan Dynasty.
