| 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). | | 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). |
| + | There is no date or reference to locality given in Andrew's part of the manuscript. Andrew is explicitly identified as author of the questions on the ''Sex principiorum'' (''Expliciunt quaestiones super librum Sex principiorum datae a domino Andrea de Cornubia''. The subsequent work has the titles erased, but Grabmann attributes it to the same author on the basis of similarities. Grabmann suggests that Andrew might have been a master at the Arts faculty in Paris, but Andrews argues that the scribe and the author are both English. 'Cornubia' clearly refers to Cornwall in England, and the split ascender on the 'l' and other paleographical evidence suggests the hand was English. |
