Summary/Abstract: Noting the constant presence of erotic elements in fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen, this paper, seeks to point the erotic complex, which, in a given text, appears. Sharing a fairy tale in two parts: the first male and the other female, we indicate two substory, male and female. The intertwining of these stories led to the merger of two bodies and their mutual birth, renewal of body and construction of their identity. By dividing the story into two parts we see the following: the first substory is the story of the prince’s fear, the fall of one Story and its end. Woman’s substory functions as a breakthrough, the resumption of testimony. Woman is the key element that enables further. Under the princess further we consider its ability to give birth, while the end of the prince is reflected in the disappearance of his Don Juan’s body, shown in the tiny pea.
