Dr Filip Malesevic is currently working as a doctoral assistant and lecturer at the Chair of General and Swiss Modern History at the University of Fribourg (Switzerland). His research focuses on the cultural history of the Roman Curia, Rome and the papacy between the 14th and 17th centuries. He is currently preparing a critical edition of the letters and unpublished works of the scholar-cardinal Guglielmo Sirleto (1514-1585) to be published by De Gruyter (Monumenta Sirletana Romanae Curiae).

In addition to his doctoral thesis on the Oratorian and Cardinal Cesare Baronio (1534-1607), Filip Malesevic has presented a monographic study on the pictorial decoration of the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana. He has just published a contribution on the same subject in the Römische Quartalschrift.

He has also published a critical edition of the liturgical writings of the Augustinian monk Onofrio Panvinio.

As a visiting researcher at the Roman Institute of the Görres Society, he devotes himself to archival research and gives a public lecture on the ceremonial of the Curia in the 16th century at the University of La Sapienza.
