Eberhard of Béthune (also known as Everard of Béthune, Évrard de Béthune, Éverard de Béthune, Ebrardus Bethuniensis or Bithuniensis, Eberhardus Bethuniensis, Eberard, Ebrard, Ebrad; died c. 1212)[1] was a Flemish[2] grammarian of the early thirteenth century, from Arras. He was the author of Graecismus, a popular Latin grammatical poem, dated to around 1212.[3] The title derives from a short section on the Greek language.[4]
His Laborintus is "an elaborate and critical treatise on poetry and pedagogics"[5] and is also known as De Miseriis Rectorum Scholarum.
Eberhard was also actively engaged in opposing the Waldensians[6] and wrote a book entitled Liber Antihaeresis (c. 1210) against them. He is cited in Martyrs Mirror and Foxe's Book of Martyrs in relation to the etymology of the movement's name.[7]
