Steampunk is a subgenre of fantasy and speculative fiction that came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world wherein steam power is still widely used—usually the 19th century, and often set in Victorian era England—but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or real technological developments like the computer occurring at an earlier date. Other examples of steampunk contain alternate history-style presentations of "the path not taken" of such technology as dirigibles or analog computers; these frequently are presented in an idealized light, or with a presumption of functionality.

  • Steampunk ist ein junges literarisches Genre, das Elemente von Abenteuerromanen, Science-Fiction und Alternativweltgeschichten verbindet, in einer früheren Epoche der Menschheitsgeschichte spielt (häufig dem viktorianischen Zeitalter), diese aber mit phantastischen Erfindungen anreichert, deren Design und offensichtliche Funktionen den Mitteln der zugrunde liegenden Zeit entsprechen, aber eigentlich Anachronismen darstellen und der dargestellten Zeit weit voraus, wenn überhaupt möglich, sind.
