Talk:Fantasy of manners

A Song of Ice and Fire?
By the description, it would seem to me that George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series would fit into this genre. But I'm unsure. Does anyone agree? If not, why not? SpectrumDT (talk) 17:49, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * No, that series is more heroic fantasy; the kind of social punctilio and battle-of-wit that enliven a fantasy of manners are not what Martin's series are about. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  19:17, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Reason for name?
There's no explanation given at all for why this is called "fantasy" of manners other than one or two sources using the term for no apparent reason whatsoever, and the label appears rather dubious with the total lack of any supernatural elements or violations of consensus reality. Could it be that some mood of surreality, grotesqueness, or social tensions is meant, rather? --79.193.27.76 (talk) 02:00, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Because this is a subgenre of fantasy fiction? -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  19:13, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

how about at least a few examples?
Hey, I would add examples myself but I don't know any. The list of authors is great but most of them have tons of books and I'm guessing only a few of them are fantasy of manners. So if anyone can do it, please add some examples of works that fall under this category.Gigei (talk) 13:21, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
