    Sammanfattning : Abstract: Carl Linnaeus’s dissertation Inebriantia (1762) emerges as a transitional piece at the intersection of the early modern and the modern period, reflecting 18th-century beliefs about inebriation, the natural world, and its mysterious forces. This study explicates Linnaeus’s perspective on the interaction between plants and human mental states by addressing the question: How does Linnaeus perceive the relationship between plants and the human mind in Inebriantia?
