Farewell from Ev. Venizelo

For a special and brilliant child of the Law School of AUTH, the former vice-prime minister, professor of Constitutional Law of AUTH, Evangelos Venizelos, speaks at his farewell.

“Extremely unpleasant news is the death of Lambros Margaritis. Shocking for us of his generation. Lambros Margaritis and I had an almost parallel university course. I did not see him often, but I always followed his scientific activity with interest and admiration. It had the stamp of the donation, Yiannis Manoledakis had said about him”, says Ev. Venizelos and adds: “This child from the mountainous Argithea co-shaped the doctrine and practice of Criminal Law, both substantive and procedural, and influenced the perception of thousands of young lawyers, court officials and lawyers with his teaching, but and his judicial practice. He was a struggling lawyer and a struggling teacher. He left early. But it leaves an indelible mark. As an intelligent and thoughtful person, he had apparently asked himself, “In what part of life does sorrow remain unparticipated? What glory has stood on earth unaltered?” And he knew that “You always shadow weaker, always more illusory of dreams; one mistake, and this is always followed by death”.
