Willem Canter (1542–1575) was a classical scholar from Utrecht. He edited the Eclogues of Stobaeus and the tragedies of Euripides, Sophocles and Aeschylus.[1]
Canter studied under Jean Daurat in Paris before becoming an independent scholar in Louvain.[2] His Ratio emendandi (Basle, 1566) was a guide to editing and textual criticism.[3] He also translated the Sacred Tales of Aelius Aristides into Latin.[4]
