For M. & K. "Steampunkopedia Analogue Collection MMIII-MMX" PDF edition, July 2010 compiled by Krzysztof Janicz (Piechur) originally published on Retrostacja/Steampunkopedia 2003-2010 www.steampunk.republika.pl Cover: "Great Steampunk Debate 2010" mash-up by Piechur, idea by Waterbug Suggested format for printing: A5 booklet About Steampunkopedia STEAMPUNKOPEDIA: GUIDE TO A COOL 19th CENTURY Steampunkopedia (est. December 2006) was an international section of Polish steampunk website Retrostacja , combining three major projects: • Steampunk Chronology - a list of nearly 3,000 works set in the chronological order (online since August 2003), • Steampunk Links - a database of over 1,000 links in 12 categories (online since August 2005), • Steampunk TV - a collection of more than 200 music videos, short films, trailers and contemporary silent films (online since November 2006). Steampunk Chronology, the core element of Steampunkopedia, was probably the first attempt to reconstruct a history and an evolution of the genre. My goal was to assemble everything that came within contemporary definition of steampunk (or within many coexisting definitions - see p.72): from modern sf, fantasy & horror set in the 19th century and retrofuturistic alternate history, to mad crossovers, pastiches and mash-ups. Being a work in permanent progress, the list has quickly multipled its initial number of 500 titles, reaching a critical mass after 100 bi-weekly update reports in July 2007. At that time Dieselpunk came into prominence, which gave a chance to split the Chronology into two separate files (see p.57). After another 100 reports (weekly, due to the peaking popularity of the genre – see p.56) the project was cancelled and removed in May 2010. The material presented here is a copy of the last online version, supplemented with no longer active links from previous editions (see p.74). However unfinished (e.g. lack of Cthulhu tabletop games and Karel Zeman movies) this bibliography may still be helpful in both collecting and further research. Krzysztof Janicz READERS ON THE CHRONOLOGY Angry Thoat An excellent Steampunk Chronology. Extra points for including some things that don't usually make any lists ( Sherlock Holmes's War of the Worlds , Avram Davidson's overlooked Eszterhazy stories, and Schuiten and Peeters' Obscure Cities series, especially) and for providing sources at the bottom! Bruce Sterling I didn't even know there WAS a 'dieselpunk chronology,' but I'm glad that these Polish steampunks have revived their site so as to relieve my ignorance in these matters. Steampunk Resources You'll find a great resource and a very European take on steampunk material. This includes foreign language material which you wouldn't otherwise encounter. Highly recommended. Strange Attractors Somewhere in a darkened office in Poland is a server dedicated to the gothic vision of 'steampunk' - a vision of the past stirred by the future, of a pseudo- Victorian world dominated by machines that might have been. The server lists every major steampunk work produced since the mid-60s. Here can be found, book-ended by the Hollywood blockbusters, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Shanghai Knights , those lesser-known but just as highly influential steampunks from Bacchus Marsh, The Lycette Bros. Greywood Möglicherweise ein Anreiz, die polnische Sprache zu lernen. Allein die Grafiken treiben Steampunk-Fans die Tränen der Begeisterung in die Augen. -1- About Steampunkopedia READERS ON STEAMPUNKOPEDIA Terra Incognita This is the mother of all online steampunk references.
