Rose Emma Salaman
Rose Emma Salaman was an English poet and translator.
She was born in London to Jewish parents Alice and Simeon Kensington Salaman. Her thirteen siblings included Charles Kensington, Rachel, Annette, and Julia Salaman. On 12 May 1857, she married Judah Collins, a surgeon and warden of the Western Marble Arch Synagogue, whose brother was architect.
Salaman's work appeared in numerous British and American periodicals during the 1840s and 1850s, including Isaac Leeser's Occident and American Jewish Advocate. Her only published volume of poetry was Poems by R. E. S., dedicated to physiologist Marshall Hall. The work was well-received by critics, and was reportedly the only book accepted by Queen Victoria in the year of mourning following Prince Albert's death in 1861.
