   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? Drawing on the history of emotions and senses, Linnaeus’s conceptualization of altered states of consciousness and the role of non-human actants in shaping human mental states is explored. LÄS MER
