Jean Garet (c. 1627 at Le Havre – 24 September 1694 at Jumièges) was a French Benedictine scholar of the Congregation of Saint-Maur.
He was professed in 1647 when he was twenty years old, and lived in the Abbey of Saint-Ouen at Rouen.
Mommsen's criticism on his edition of the Variae, which was included in the above work, is very severe: "A work without either skill or learning - Garet took Fournier's text (Paris, 1579) as a basis, and inserted alterations of his own rather than corrections."
As a preface to his edition Garet wrote a dissertation in which he tried to prove that Cassiodorus was a Benedictine.
Migne followed the Garet edition in Patrologia Latina, LXIX-LXX.
