What do you mean "it's not historically accurate"? Of course it's historically accurate. It's an historically accurate 13th Century English knight using historically accurate 15th Century Italian weapons to kill historically accurate 10th Century Danish Vikings in historically accurate 17th Century France. What's not clicking?

Anachronism masterlist
Or the placing of persons, events, objects, or customs in times to which they do not belong
Tumblr media
Last update: February 13th 2023 COMPLETED (with occasional additions)
Summary: Sprained ankles, snowstorms, blood-thirsty wolves and feral super soldiers. What was supposed to be a peaceful walk in the woods surrounding the cabin you're staying in with your best friend Steve quickly turns devastating, forcing your path to cross with a mysterious and burly man who can't seem to grasp social cues and the concept of privacy. His past is a puzzle that can't seem to be solved and your feelings for the sweet and giant man quickly develop from friendly gratitude to something neither of you can't quite grasp.
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x fem!reader, Steve Rogers x fem!reader
Warnings: Bigfoot!Bucky, 6'6" Bucky (he's massive. so beefy), manhandling, technically kidnapping but it's all good, reader almost gets hypothermia, Smut (18+), mild violence
A/N: I present to you beefy!Bucky that is also technically a hot Yeti. Feral vibes only and also obsessed with his girl. So ridiculously self-indulgent but any and all suggestions, thoughts and wishes are so, so welcome since I’m still writing the rest of the series.

Sorry Derry Girls. Set in The Troubles, but this King Kong figure sculpt wasn’t released until the 2017 film Kong: Skull Island 🙈

Example sentences:
A slingshot is an anachronism in modern warfare.
Jo’s painting of 18th-century Japan was perfect, except for one anachronism—a turbo-charged racing car.
Like many episodes of Doctor Who, “Dinosaurs on a Spaceship” has its share of anachronisms, such as dinosaurs on a spaceship. (Duh.)

“but that style/trope/language isn’t historically accurate, it was just made up for TV/movies” yes it’s called a narrative invention and it absolutely rips

Fun fact: Everybody knows the Parisian "Cour des Miracles", right? But there's a funny thing: this Court of beggars and thieves and crooks seems to be doomed to the curse of anachronism. Because in almost all of its big fictional depictions, the Court is placed within eras where it is not supposed to exist - from "Assassin's Creed Unity", where the Court is still here in 1791 when it was definitively destroyed in the 1780s, to Victor Hugo's own "Notre-Dame de Paris" where the Court appears in 1482... While the Court historically appeared around the 1630s - maybe a bit earlier, but it was definitively in the beginning of the 17th century.

Does Anachronism Matter in Fantasy?
It can feel absurd to talk about anachronism in fantasy. After all, the moment we step into the fantastic, any attempt to match reality goes out the window, right?
Well, no, not really. Anachronism can make a difference, for good or for bad. To understand how, we need to think about its context.
