A special episode of Cafe Comparatum to pay tribute to the late Professor Konstantinos Kerameus who passed away a few weeks ago. Professor Kerameus was a former President of the International Academy of Comparative law from 1998 to 2006 and notably organised the 1994 General Congress of the Academy in Athens. This special episode features a conversation with a former student and friend of Professor Kerameus. Symeon Symeonides is the Alex Parks Distinguished Professor of Law and Dean Emeritus at Willamette University, in Salem, Oregon in the United States.  References:  Konstantinos Kerameus, "Comparative Law and Comparative Lawyers: Opening Remarks, 75 Tulane Law Review 865 (2001). Extract: "The early seventeenth century has bequeathed us with two contrasting statements about comparison. For William Shakespeare, "Comparisons are odorous." For John Donne, "Comparisons are odious." Modern comparative law has to thoughtfully steer clear, and in equidistance, from both exaggerations." The opening remarks of the Athens Congress can be found in Konstantinos Kerameus and Maria Gavouneli (Editors), General Reports / Rapports généraux - XIVe Athens General Congress / Congrès Général d'Athènes 1994, Sakkoulas Publ. and Kluwer Law International, Athens/The Hague (1996); see also the text published in Studia Juridica, vol. 5, p. 865, Sakkoulas Publ.
