《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。
