The C recension of the False Decretals is one of the major versions of this collection and is derived from the Pseudoisidore AB. It was seen as a late version of Pseudoisidore by Hinschius. Modern scholarship, however, has long suspected that it was older than the manuscript tradition (saec. XIIex and later) would suggest. Steffen Patzold has made a strong case that the "core" of the C recension indeed is a product by the Pseudoisidorian forgers themselves.

Contents

The C recension of the False Decretals contains all three parts (decretals - councils - decretals) but compared to the A1 recension is shorter. However, it has more letters of Leo I than any other recension (102 letters compared to 56 or 57 in A1). All recension drew on the letters of Leo found in the Collectio Hispana Gallica Augustodunensis; the A1 version in addition contains 18 more letters, almost all from the Collectio Quesnelliana (Knibbs). The formal sources of the Leonine dossier in C according to Patzold also include the Collectio Corbeiensis (for one letter), the Collectio Bobbiensis, and the Collectio Grimanica.
