Andres, Antonio

Andres, Antonio a Franciscan monk of Spain, native of Tauste, in Arragon, lived near the close of the 13th century or at the commencement of the 14th. He was a zealous partisan, and one of the best commentators of his master, John Duns Scotus. The insinuating manner in which he taught the doctrines of his master gained for him the surname of "Doctor Dulcifuus." He wrote, Commentarius in Artem Veterem Aristotelis, scilicet in Isagogen Porphyrii, Prcedicamenta et post Prcedicamenta Aristotelis (Venice, 1477): — Qucestiones super XII Libros. Metaphysicoe (ibid. 1491): — In Quatuor Libros Sententiarum (ibid. 1572, 1578). See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Gen., s.v.
