French tosafist of the twelfth century; elder colleague of the tosafist Joseph ben Isaac of Orleans, together with whom he signed responsa ("Sefer ha-Yashar," pp.70-71, Vienna, 1810). Eliezer ben Joel ha-Levi, who quotes a responsum signed by Solomon and Joseph (MS. Halberstam No. 925), states that he does not know whether or not the R. Solomon in question is Rashi, which proves that these two scholars were sometimes confounded with each other. Solomon carried on a learned correspondence with his contemporary Rabbenu Tam, who addresses him either by his full name or simply as "Rabbi Solomon."
