Both feature a dream-induced fantasy of autonomous genitalia sold by merchants in specialized sex fairs. However, beyond these shared narrative stock and dream typology, fundamental differences loom large between them: they include differences in the status of the main protagonists (a married woman in the former and a Cluniac monk in the later), but also and more subtly, differences in the narrative tone and in the moral purposes of the fabliaux. After comparing how female and male sexual desires and anxieties are respectively depicted, this study explores how through various fictional and historical contexts medieval audiences may have encountered the notion and even the images of autonomous genitalia, male in particular. Finally, as an additional context for the dreamed sex fairs, I proposed that fertility pilgrimages where sexual wax ex-votos were sold may also have furnished an original point of departure and contribution for these erotic tales.Cairn free access
