Edvard Bull (4 December 1881 – 26 August 1932) was a Norwegian historian and politician for the Labour Party.
He took the doctorate in 1912 and became a professor at the University of Kristiania in 1917, and is known for writings on a broad range of subjects.
In addition to his academic work, he is known for his work on Norsk biografisk leksikon.
His Marxist leanings inspired him to take up a parallel political career, in the Labour Party.
Situated on the radical wing in the 1910s, he was among the architects as the Labour Party denounced the Twenty-one Conditions in 1923 and reunited with the social democrats in 1927.
He was the deputy party leader from 1923 to 1932, and served as Norwegian Minister of Foreign Affairs in Hornsrud's short-lived cabinet in 1928.
