CAREW or CARY, ROBERT, also called Cervinus (fl. 1325), schoolman, is stated to have been a doctor of divinity of Oxford, and to have held an eminent position as a teacher and philosopher. His works named are ‘Quæstiones in libros Posteriorum Aristotelis,’ besides the regular productions of a scholastic,—a commentary on the ‘Sentences’ of Peter Lombard, ‘Quæstiones ordinariæ,’ and expositions ‘super varios sacræ Scripturæ textus.’
