The FEF promotes scientific research activity primarily dedicated to medieval culture, both Latin and Romance, in its literary expressions.

The research supported by the FEF is dedicated to the following sectors: medieval Latin philology, Italian and Romance philology, mysticism and Mariology, musicology, digital humanities and the history of medieval studies.

In these fields the FEF carries out fundamental research projects, including the inventory of texts and manuscripts in database form, offers scholarships and research collaborations, and promotes publication of periodicals and monographs.

Starting in 2012 the Foundation aims to make available a certain number of post-doctoral fellowships and research grants for young scholars from Italy and the rest of the world, in the principal areas of research supported by the FEF.
