Roman Frenkel

Born in Saint Petersburg in 1892, he became known as an Esperanto poet and translator. His name is especially linked to the early literary culture of Esperanto, where writers and translators were building a shared international body of work.

Project Gutenberg lists his collection Verdaj fajreroj among his works, showing that his poetry has remained available to later generations of readers. His surviving public profile is modest, but the record that does exist points to a writer valued for his contribution to Esperanto letters.

A portrait of him appears on the Esperanto Wikipedia page about his life and work, reflecting the lasting interest of Esperanto readers in preserving his legacy.
