Joshua Rodda is an early career researcher and tutor in the History Department at the University of Nottingham, where in 2012 he completed a doctoral dissertation on public religious disputation in post-Reformation England. This, his first book, represents the culmination of more than five years’ research, speaking and publication on the topic.
'Rodda has done a fine job, and raised various questions for further study or, indeed, an edition of extant texts of disputations as a handbook. The monograph because of its terse style demands careful reading, but the effort is worthwhile.' Journal of Jesuit Studies
