Jean Gerson was chancellor of the University of Paris, and lived 1363-1429.  Here is what Gerson said about theology as Queen of the sciences:

"Let them [the other discipline/sciences] yield to Theology and refrain form entering into her schools with importune questions, for it is proper for servants to come into the presence of the queen prepared and equipped."
