„Pseudoisidore“ is the common short hand for a group of collections of both genuine and forged materials produced in the ninth century. Often, it refers to the most famous of these collections, the False Decretals, itself a composite work of genuine, falsified, and forged decretals, conciliar canons, and some other materials.
