His feuds with [[Carlo Goldoni]] and [[Pietro Chiari]] between 1756-1762 were legion. They argued over the changing style of Italian theatre and Gozzi's concern about losing ''[[Commedia dell'arte]]''.<ref name=":1" />

The writer [[Gasparo Gozzi]] was his brother.

A number of twentieth-century stage works were inspired by Gozzi's plays. These include treatments of ''[[Turandot (Gozzi)|Turandot]]'' by [[Karl Vollmöller]] and [[Turandot (Brecht)|Bertolt Brecht]], operas based on the same story by [[Turandot (Busoni)|Ferruccio Busoni]], and, more famously, [[Turandot|Giacomo Puccini]], [[Sergei Prokofiev]]'s ''[[The Love of Three Oranges]]'', [[Alfredo Casella]]'s ''[[La donna serpente (opera)|La donna serpente]]'' and [[Hans Werner Henze]]'s ''[[König Hirsch]]''. He shares his tomb with his brother [[Gasparo Gozzi]] at [[San Michele Cemetery, Venice|the San Michele cemetery]] on the [[Isola di San Michele]].
