Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A World Where the Victorian Age Never Ended-It Evolved.What if the Western world had never moved beyond the Victorian era, but instead embraced Steampunk aesthetics and technology?In The Illustrated New World of Victorian Steampunk: Reimagining Modern Civilization Through Steampunk Technology, author, historian, and artist Lochlainn Seabrook answers that question by presenting a vividly imagined fictional civilization in which Victorian science, engineering, culture, and mechanical ingenuity evolved into the modern age.Across 160 richly detailed profiles, Seabrook explores virtually every dimension of this remarkable Steampunk world, from cities, architecture, transportation, industry, and communications to home life, fashion, commerce, medicine, education, government, entertainment, sports, warfare, exploration, and spaceflight. Steam-powered machinery, clockwork mechanisms, advanced automata, airships, locomotives, mechanical computers, and countless ingenious inventions demonstrate how nineteenth-century technology might have developed along an entirely different path.Each profile combines historical foundations with imaginative worldbuilding and an original full-color illustration, creating an immersive visual encyclopedia of a world that is at once Victorian and modern. Beyond its Steampunk vision, the book celebrates the heritage of Western civilization, preserving and honoring its art, architecture, traditions, institutions, craftsmanship, and cultural achievements for a new generation of readers.Both a premium visual reference and a work of alternate history, this lavishly illustrated coffee-table volume is designed for Steampunk enthusiasts, history buffs, artists, writers, worldbuilders, inventors, collectors, and admirers of Victorian culture. With an original full-color illustration accompanying every profile, it is a substantial visual compendium created to be explored, displayed, and revisited.Step inside The Illustrated New World of Victorian Steampunk and discover the extraordinary modern civilization of elegance, imagination, progress, and possibility that steam built.
