Rosa Taddei (August 30, 1799 – March 3, 1869) was an Italian actress and poet. She was also known by her married name Rosa Mozzidolfi.

Although she considered herself a Neapolitan, Taddei may have been born in Trento or Corato. She was the daughter of Francesco Taddei; her father, mother and brother Luigi were all actors. She was considered one of the most beautiful and talented tragic actors of her day. Taddei was best known as a "improvisatrice" or improvisational poet. She was a distinguished member of the Accademia degli Arcadi in Rome, where she was known as Licori Partenopea. In 1832, she married Vincenzo Mozzidolfi.

She died in Rome in 1869.
