Peter of Auvergne

Peter of Auvergne (Petrus Alverniensis, Petrus de Alvernia, Pierre d'Auvergne, Petrus de Crocq, Peter von Auvergne, Petrus de Cros, Petrus de Croso, Petrus de Croco, Petrus de Croc, d. 1304)
== Life ==
"Peter of Auvergne was one of the major philosophers and theologians of the last quarter of the XIII century. He spent his entire career in the Paris University. There, he became Rector of the Arts Faculty in 1275 and eventually secular Master of Theology in 1296. He died in Clermont-Ferrand on September 25, 1304. On his life and bibliography see Hocedez 1933; Flüeler 19921; Gerwing 1996; Galle 2000; Galle 20031; Galle 2005; Weijers 2007. 
The importance of his thought is witnessed both in the statements of his contemporaries and in the influence he exerted over the following generations. The widespread diffusion of his work is attested by the large number of extant manuscripts (almost 150). Given the fact that Peter was the continuator of some of Thomas Aquinas’s unfinished commentaries on Aristotle, scholarship tended to see Peter simply as the “doctor continuator”. In contrast, in recent decades his importance has been gradually recognized as a master with his own voice and, along with Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas and John Buridan, one of the most important Aristotelian commentators of the Middle Ages."
