Robert de Gretham, alternatively Robert de Greetham, (fl. 13th century) is an Anglo-Norman literary person and cleric noted for Etude sur le Miroir ou les Evangiles des domnees. The work was directly intended for the private devotions of Lady Elena of Quency, but a larger audience is implied by the author addressing a masculine plural. The work intended to act as a "Looking Glass for the Soul", hence the title referring to a mirror. He is also said to have written Corset on popular theology and dedicated it to an Alain and his wife.
