Israel Salanter

Yisrael ben Ze'ev Wolf Lipkin, also known as Israel Salanter or Yisroel Salanter, was the father of the Musar movement in Orthodox Judaism and a famed Rosh yeshiva and Talmudist. The epithet Salanter was added to his name since most of his schooling took place in Salant, where he came under the influence of Rabbi Yosef Zundel of Salant. He was the father of mathematician Yom Tov Lipman Lipkin.
