Abstract: This is a study of Veneto-Maltese relations. When I first approached the subject, I held one major consideration in mind. Given the disparate nature of Maltese historical scholarship, the need was felt to relate my present research to work I have already done. This approach, I trust, would help to contribute, on a modest scale, towards a future synthesis of the various aspects and levels of relationship that existed between Venice and Malta .from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century. Located within the external framework of the Mediterranean situation and the political, diplomatic and the economic conditions prevailing in both States, this dissertation attempts to establish the facts and determine the nature of some aspects of these relations from the War of Cyprus to the outbreak of the Thirty Years War. I have triad to combine narrative and analysis in a fairly balanced way. In broad terms, it is a study in the process by which the Venetian Republic, through its seemingly culpable and cynical collaboration with, and commitment ta, the Sultan at Constantinople, was able to 'enforce its will' upon the complaisant principality of Malta in the sixteenth century and the partial reversal of the process at the dawn of the seventeenth. In a narrower sense, it is a case-study
