Meaning of steampunk




furoya

steampunk
  13

It is a subgenre of cyberpunk, where similar themes are played, but instead of being set in hyper-technical societies they do so in a uchronic and retrofuturistic world, where development appeared thanks to steam engines, and electricity barely exists in a prolonged Victorian era. The name is formed from the English voices steam ("steam") and punk, more like a suffix of these literary genres.
