On 24 May 1565 the Ottoman artillery opened fire on Fort St. Elmo, one of the fortresses of the Knights hospitaller. This was the beginning of the great siege of Malta. Behind the artillery, an army of 40,000 soldiers was waiting to conquer the island, sent there by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, who wanted to strengthen the position of the Ottoman Empire in the struggle for supremacy in the Mediterranean and wipe out the Order of St. John, also known as Knights Hospitaller once and for all. But the Knights together with Maltese militia and a number of mercenaries, put up a fierce fight. Europe was trembling as the siege developed into a war of attrition of epic proportions. The possibility of an Ottoman bridgehead so close to Italy had never been more real.

Is it a story? How does it work in practise? Can writing history be objective? Is it "scientific"? What makes it a proper discipline at university?
