My neologism "classical steampunk era" isn't a scientific term in any case. If you want to be really exact about it, now would be the "classical steampunk era" provided there will one day be a second wave or a rennaissance of steampunk. In any case, I see that the words I chose may be a bit unfortunate but I am not going to alter them in this post, otherwise later readers will be confused about this discussion here.

Verne and Wells were writing scientific romances - kind of Victoarian futuristic fiction, as opposed to steampunk which is a contemporary retro-futuristic fiction.
