Ignacy Tański (1761 – 15 August 1805) was a Polish poet and playwright. He was Klementyna Hoffmanowa's father.
Tański was born in the moderately rich noble family. He received education from Collegium Nobilium in Warsaw and worked as a Police Department clerk next to the Permanent Council and as a secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Poland. After 1795 he settled down in Puławy to work as a secretary of Adam Kazimierz Czartoryski.
He created sentimental, occasional poems, stage pastorals and comedies (for example Dobrogost, first performed in 1801 or 1802). Tański is also an author of the opera I plotka czasem się przyda (first performed in 1802, with music by Wincenty Ferdynand Lessel). He died in 1805. The collective edition of his works titled Wiersze i pisma różne was published three years after his death, in 1808.
