Famous gaon Rabbi Akiva Yosef ben Rabbi Yechial Shlesinger (1837-1922), disciple of  the 'Ketav Sofer' in Yeshiva Pressburg, Maharam Shik, and Rabbi Chaim Sofer. Son-in-law of Rabbi Hillel Lichtenstein. Fought zealously against the Neologen and the adoption of  modern dress and language. Author of sefer 'Lev HaIvri'. Immigrated to Israel in 1870 and toiled in Torah and settlement of Israel. In 1873 he published his sefer  "חברה מחזירי עטרה ליושנה עם כולל העברים", in which he brought forth a detailed plan political, economical, and organized for the estabishment of the Jewish Nation in Israel in the Torah spirit approved by the Government. After several months he published his sefer 'Beit Yosef HaChadash', in its introduction he criticized the administrators of the Kollelim and demanded to investigate the managing of the finances. As a result he suffered many persecutions which caused him to dismiss his institution and close his Beit Medrash. He continued all his life to work for the settlement of Israel and delve in the hidden and revealed Torah day and night.
