Re: Re: Re: My friend's question

And further, from Wikipedia:

"Historical" steampunk usually leans more towards science fiction than fantasy, but a number of historical steampunk stories have incorporated magical elements as well. For example, Morlock Night, written by K. W. Jeter, revolves around an attempt by the wizard Merlin to raise King Arthur to save Britain in 1892 from an invasion of Morlocks from the future.[5]The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers involves a cabal of magicians among the beggars and thieves of the early 19th century London underworld.

Also, related to my subjective definition of steampunk, Girl Genius creator Phil Foglio refers to his seminal work not as steam punk but as gaslight fantasy.
