Peter of Auvergne (died 1304) was a French philosopher and theologian.
He was a canon of Paris; some biographers have thought that he was Bishop of Clermont,[1] because a Bull of Boniface VIII of the year 1296 names as canon of Paris a certain Peter of Croc (Cros), already canon of Clermont;[2] but it is more likely that they are distinct. Peter of Auvergne was in Paris in 1301,[3] and, according to several accounts, was a pupil of Thomas Aquinas. In 1279, while the various nations of the University of Paris were quarrelling about the rectorship, Simon de Brion, papal legate, appointed Peter of Auvergne to that office; in 1296 he was elected to it.
