The A1 recension of the False Decretals is the most prominent of the six versions of this collection ever since Hinschius published his 1863 edition which is still being used today. He labelled the group of manuscripts ‘A1’ as he assumed that they were closed to the original form of the forgeries, and the main text of his edition is largely that of the A1 recension, or what Hinschius thought was A1 (Paris, BnF, lat. 9629, his Leithandschrift, is in fact an Pseudoisidore AB manuscript).

The False Decretals in the Database

The present analysis (IS) includes only the forged decretals from Clement to Damasus. These decretals have the original rubrics of the forgers. The Clavis database entries are based on the edition of Paul Hinschius, Decretales Pseudo-Isidorianae (1863); online.
