'''Andrew of Cornwall''' (Andreas Cornubiensis, Andreas de Cornubia, André de Cornouailles) flourished in the 1290's at Oxford.  He is thought to have introduced Parisan modism in to England, and possibly to have influenced the young [[Duns Scotus]].  These conclusions are tentative, since we are almost totally ignorant of the details of Andrew's life, and the dates and location of his activity are not certain.

All that we know of Andrew is from the evidence of his work, in the manuscript Munich BSB clm. 14383, containing ''Quaestiones super librum Sex principiorum'' (81ra-86ra), and ''Questiones super librum Porphyrii'' (86rb-92va).
