William Bathe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
William Bathe (1564 – 1614) was a Jesuit priest, born in Dublin, Ireland.[1]
He taught languages in Europe and was the author of one of the world's first language teaching texts, juxtaposing words to their pictures Janua Linguarum [in English: The Door of Tongues]. The famous Czech educator Comenius based his work Janua Linguarum Reserata on this text.
