1872–1936
A Greek man of letters from Agrinio, he is remembered for vivid prose that captures everyday life and local color. His work offers a window into the language and atmosphere of Greece at the turn of the 20th century.

by D. Chatzopoulos
Born in Agrinio in 1872 and later dying in Athens in 1936, Dimitrios Chatzopoulos is identified in major Greek cultural records as a man of letters. His surviving publications include Nτόπιες Ζωγραφιές, a collection associated with Project Gutenberg that presents lively narrative sketches from Greek life.
Although concise biographical information is easier to confirm than a full literary profile, the available records consistently place him within modern Greek literary culture. He is also noted as the brother of the better-known writer Konstantinos Chatzopoulos, which helps situate him in an important literary family.
Today, his name mainly reaches new readers through digitized archives and public-domain editions. For audiobook listeners, his appeal lies in that sense of place: short prose pieces shaped by observation, character, and the textures of everyday Greek experience.
