The Collectio Grimanica is a collection of 104 letters of Leo the Great extant in only one manuscript of the ninth century, namely Paris, Bibliothèque Mazarine, 1645. According to Turner, it was composed in the sixth century; Silva-Tarouca, in contrast, argued it was influenced by many collections including Pseudo-Isidore and thus late. However, as Jasper relates, this view has not won acceptance; rather, the False Decretals are thought to have been influenced by the Grimanica.
