The Formative Years: High School and University
The 1970 are the formative years, the years in which Boccaccini had his first public experiences.
In the last year of the Middle School Boccaccini was selected as one of the five members of the jury of the National Literary Price "Bancarellino" at Pontremoli. The event was broadcast live on Italian television. It was the first time Boccaccini and his brother travelled alone.
In June 1971 there were the final exams and Boccaccini won the award "La pagella migliore" as one of the best students in Tuscany. Completed his primary education, he attended the Liceo Classico "Dante Alighieri" in Florence, from 1971 to 1976. He studied Latin, Greek, History, Philosophy. In July 1973 he spent one month in England to practice his English. He passed the Final Exams (Maturita' classica) in July 1976 with the highest grades. He wrote a Honor Thesis on "I cattolici, la Bibbia e la vita pubblica in Italia (1815-1976) <The Catholics, the Bible and the Political Life in Italy (1815-1976)>.
In 1976 he enrolled at the College of Humanities at the University of Florence, where he attended courses and seminars on Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Aramaic, Hellenistic History and Philosophy, Church History, New Testament, and Christian Origins. Among his professors were Francesco Adorno, Pelio Fronzaroli, Ida Zatelli, Michele Ranchetti, Giancarlo Gaeta, Domenico Maselli, Luciano Martini, and others.
He also enrolled at the Florence School of Theology, where he attended courses on OT and NT Exegesis, and Christian Theology by professors Valerio Mannucci, Lino Randellini, Enrico Chiavacci, and others.
Since 1975 he volunteered as an instructor in summer camps for children, first in Puglia (1975) and then in Gaeta (1976). With the Centro Tempo Libero (CTL) he took part in summer camps and theatrical performances in Trieste (1977), Abbadia San Salvatore (1978), and Muggia (1979).
In Florence he attended the circles of the "Christian Left" that gathered at the Chiesa della Madonna della Tossa: Mario e Wilma Gozzini, Luciano Martini, don Angelo Chiaroni, padre Ernesto Balducci, padre Benedetto Calati, padre Innocenzo Gargano, padre Emanuele Bargellini, Mons. Silvano Piovanelli, Enrico Chiavacci, Raniero La Valle, pastore Luigi Santini, and others. On the other hand, the friendship with Vittorio Lampronti put him in touch even more closely with the Amicizia Ebraico-Cristiana di Firenze and the Jewish community of Florence.
With his involvement in the ecumenical movements (attending since 1978 the annual summer conferences of the Segretariato Attivita' Ecumeniche [SAE] at La Mendola and the meetings of the Journal "Bozze"), he got acquainted with the major leaders in the inter-faith movements in Italy, Maria Vingiani, pastors Paolo Ricca, Mario Affuso, Santini, and others.
