Urodził się w Heraklionie na Krecie (Kriti) i kształcił się na Uniwersytecie Narodowym i Kapodistrianskim w Atenach, gdzie uzyskał dyplom z prawa. Po ukończeniu studiów wyjechał do Trzeciej Republiki Francuskiej, gdzie studiował filozofię pod kierunkiem Henri Bergsona. Znana jest również jego powieść "Pasja grecka", opowiadająca o odtworzeniu przedstawienia pasyjnego w greckiej wiosce.
