Abstract
Rebecca Rosen Honorable Mention: Camille Owens From the magnificent volume of essays published in volume 57 of Early American Literature, the 2022 Richard Beale Davis Prize is awarded to Rebecca Rosen for '"The Voice of the Innocent Blood Cries Aloud from the Ground to Heaven': Speaking and Discovering Infanticide in the Early American Northeast." In her riveting study '"The Voice of the Innocent Blood Cries Aloud from the Ground to Heaven,"' Rebecca Rosen examines cruentation (the belief that a corpse bleeds in proximity of the murderer) as a form of testimony in late seventeenth- and eighteenth-century infanticide literature. Rebecca m. rosen is an assistant professor of English at Murray State University (MSU) and has held fellowships from institutions including the McNeil Center for Early American Studies and the American Antiquarian Society.
