This man's son argued for the legalization of suicide in his opera Der Friedensengel and tackled abortion in Der Kobold. One of his own operas sees the dueling arias "Blick' ich umher" and "Dir Gottin der Liebe"; another song contest by this man sees Sixtus Beckmesser self-destruct while trying to perform the "Prize Song." (*) Elsa and a knight celebrate their marriage in this man's oft-performed Wedding March. For 10 points, name this composer of Tannhauser, The Mastersingers of Nuremberg, Lohengrin, and four operas comprising his Ring Cycle.
