《法蘭克人史紀》(拉丁文Liber Historiae Francorum,英文The Book of the History of the Franks)是“法蘭克時代核心歷史文獻漢譯與研究 ”系列書中第二部。 該書出現於公元8世紀前期。從敘史結構上來看,它屬“法蘭克通史”範疇,從法蘭克人的“特洛伊起源”傳說一直寫到作者所生活的8世紀前期。全書共分53章,從材料來源上說,前42章中,有相當一部分內容取自格雷戈裡的《法蘭克人史》一書,但亦有一些新材料。從法蘭克通史角度來說,真正使得《法蘭克人史紀》具有不可替代價值的是第43―53章,這部分內容涉及642―721年間的法蘭克史事,而這部分史料在法蘭克歷史上又具有惟一性。也就是說,正是借助於此書,642年之後數十年的墨洛溫王朝史得以補上。該書對墨洛溫王朝史的記載截止於721年,此時距該王朝正式滅亡尚有30年。 本書的譯者導論對《法蘭克人史紀》的文獻學源流做了深入探究和挖掘。對它的基本面貌、作者身份和寫作地點、歷代抄本和刻本、所依據的文本、敘事方式等方方面面、點點滴滴做了清晰的闡述。

This collection of papers from various areas of mathematical logic showcases the remarkable breadth and richness of the field. Leading authors reveal how contemporary technical results touch upon foundational questions about the nature of mathematics. Highlights of the volume include: a history of Tennenbaum's theorem in arithmetic; a number of papers on Tennenbaum phenomena in weak arithmetics as well as on other aspects of arithmetics, such as interpretability; the transcript of Gödel's previously unpublished 1972–1975 conversations with Sue Toledo, along with an appreciation of the same by Curtis Franks; Hugh Woodin's paper arguing against the generic multiverse view; Anne Troelstra's history of intuitionism through 1991; and Aki Kanamori's history of the Suslin problem in set theory. The book provides a historical and philosophical treatment of particular theorems in arithmetic and set theory, and is ideal for researchers and graduate students in mathematical logic and philosophy o
This volume of specially commissioned essays takes as its theme the legacy of Rome in Carolingian culture in eighth- and ninth-century Europe. No such comprehensive survey of this kind exists in any language. The book is made the more unusual by departing from the customary stress on the concept of renewal to emphasise the enormous creativity and inventiveness of the Franks in every aspect of their intellectual and cultural life. Carolingian culture provided the bedrock for the subsequent development of medieval European culture, and this is demonstrated amply by essays which are planned as introductions to the study of each subject and which also incorporate the author's specialist new research, on the 'Carolingian Renaissance', political theory, the teaching of grammar, Latin and German literature, thought, the writing of history, script and book production, art, and music.
