Bertholdus (Bernaldus, Bertoul, Bernoul), or Berthold

whom Dupin calls Bertulphus, or Berinulpus), a German theologian and historian, was priest at Constance, and lived in the'latter half of the 11th century. He was a most bitter enemy of his prince, the emperor Henry IV, against whom he did not scruple to employ both the pen and the sword. He continued the Chronicle of Herman Contracte, by giving a history of his own time from 1054 to 1100. His works are entitled, Bertholdi Historia Rerum suo Tempore per Singulos Annos Gestarum (Frankfort, 1570, 1585): De Vitanda Excommunicatorum Communione de Reconciliatione Lapsorum, et de Conciliorum, Decretorum, Decretatium, ipsarumique Pontificum Romanorum Auctoritate (Ingolstiadt, 1612): Bernoldi Apologeticus pro Gregorio VII, see Tractatuts de Sacramentis Excommunicatorum juxta Assertionem SS. Patrum, in vol. 5 of the Grand Pontifical Library of Jo. Thomas Rocaberti (Rome, 1698): also some small treatises in favor of Gregory VII, published by the Jesuit Gretser (Ingolstadt, 1609). See Cave, Hist. Lit. ii, 146; Dupin, Hist. of Eccles. Writers, ii, 249; Landon, Eccles. Dict s.v.; Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Gen., s.v.
