This writer's plays (*)  
A poetry collection by John Wilson influenced a play by this author in which a priest attempts to stop the Chairman from  leading a group of revelers in singing ditties while their city goes to hell. A character created by this author asks "why did  you come to visit us / In this forgotten quiet place?" in a letter in which she "write[s] to you...when that is said / What  more is left for me to say?" In another play, this author created a character who is increasingly upset that God rewarded  his lazier rival and pours poison in the rival's drink, confirming that "villainy and genius / are two things that can never  go together." This writer's plays (*)  Feast in the Time of Plague and Mozart and Salieri are two of four "little tragedies." This writer used iambic tetrameter with alternating masculine and feminine rhymes in the stanzas of his magnum opus, in which the  title character duels Lensky and rejects Tatyana. For 10 points, name this Russian author of Eugene Onegin.
