The Great Historical Forgeries Upon Which Papal Authority Is Founded argues that the temporal power and claims of supremacy of the papacy rest on a long tradition of fabricated and manipulated documents. Drawing on meticulous historical scholarship, Johann Joseph Ignaz von Döllinger contends that texts such as the Donation of Constantine and the Pseudo-Isidorian Decretals were deliberate forgeries used to construct and legitimize papal authority over centuries. The work presents these deceptions not as isolated errors, but as a systematic foundation for ecclesiastical power that cannot withstand critical historical scrutiny.
