| Summary | "The Complete Works of Brann, the Iconoclast — Volume 01" by William Cowper Brann is a collection of essays and articles that highlight the audacious voice of the author, written in the late 19th century during a period of immense social change. Through his writings, Brann addresses a variety of topics—ranging from personal anecdotes to broader societal critiques—pushing against the boundaries of acceptable discourse of his time. His work is notable for its passionate and fierce critique of social norms, politics, and religion, revealing a deep commitment to free expression and challenging the status quo. The opening of the volume discusses the legacy of Brann's work, emphasizing the publishers' intention to preserve his writings after his untimely death. A preface by Milo Hastings praises Brann as a unique literary genius whose voice was often not welcomed by traditional institutions of literature, portraying his fearless, iconoclastic spirit. The text highlights Brann's tumultuous engagement with themes such as morality, human experience, and the nature of love, including a provocative retelling of the story of Potiphar's wife, illustrating his talent for blending humor with critical observation. This portion sets the tone for the collection and indicates that readers can expect a vibrant, unflinching exploration of human nature and societal issues through Brann's distinct lens.
