Abstract
The topic of this article is
an investigation of situations and symbolism in Romanian fairy tales relating
to representations of sexuality and the body. For various reasons, there has
not yet been a study of this body of work from the perspective of academic
gender studies. The study of anthologies of fairy tales reveals a number of
interesting examples in which the carnal body and sexual dimensions represent a
true operational reference within stories, and indeed sexual valorisation can
be seen as pivotal to the whole epic discourse. The article thus attempts to
present both the mental structures on which the fairy tales’ anonymous authors
have represented and inserted such sexual appetites, and the value significance
of such allusions.
