Xenopoulos, an adroit handler of the scenic economy and dialogue, rivets the interest even of the modern spectator. In his play he describes the composition of the society of Zante with emphasis on the native faces and in the local people's psychology. The modern spectator discovers the perfume of a time that does not exist anymore. This return, right in idyllic times, adds up in his plays an allurement that it did not exist when these plays were written.
