The {{lang|it|Treccani}} dictionary describes him as "a decent man of letters but not a true poet." Considering that Zeno was "Cesarian poet" in his time, it is fair to say that judgements may differ. However, it is clear that Zeno, at least regarding operatic libretti, is overshadowed today by [[Pietro Metastasio]]. | The {{lang|it|Treccani}} dictionary describes him as "a decent man of letters but not a true poet."

After brief invitations in the years before, Zeno was employed by the imperial court in Vienna from 1718 on, as "Poeta et Istorico Cesareo". He initially continued the collaboration with P. Pariati, also employed at the Viennese court, and which resulted in 15 opera texts, for which Z. mostly designed the plot structure and P. formulated the texts. In 1729 Zeno recommended [[Pietro Metastasio]] as his successor at the imperial court and returned to Venice to continue his earlier work as a writer and journalist.<ref name="Musiklexikon"/> | |||
