ABOUT

A multicultural perspective on steampunk

This is the tumblr associated with Beyond Victoriana, the oldest-running blog about multicultural steampunk and retro-futurism--that is, steampunk outside of a Western-dominant, Eurocentric framework. All of the steampunkery here focuses on non-Western cultures, underrepresented minorities in Western histories (Asian / Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern, First Nation, Hispanic, black / African & other marginalized identities), and the cultural intersection between the West and the non-West.

The Copper Claw

Pele is a Hawaiian goddess of fire, wind, volcanoes, and lightening. She dwells in the very active Kilauea volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii. One of her biggest enemies was her sister, Na-Maka-o-kaha’i, a water and sea goddess who would flood the pits of Pele’s crater-like homes, preventing her from living there. She is passionate, volatile, and capricious, and is known as “She Who Shapes the Sacred Land”.
