Treatise on Light: In Which Are Explained the Causes of That Which Occurs in Reflection & Refraction (French: Traité de la Lumière: Où Sont Expliquées les Causes de ce qui Luy Arrive Dans la Reflexion & Dans la Refraction) is a book written by Dutch polymath Christiaan Huygens that was published in French in 1690. The book describes Huygens's conception of the nature of light propagation which makes it possible to explain the laws of geometrical optics shown in Descartes's Dioptrique, which Huygens aimed to replace.

  • Tratado sobre a luz (original em francês: Traité de la lumière) é o livro escrito pelo matemático e físico neerlandês Christiaan Huygens, apresentado pela primeira vez à Academia Real de Ciências da França em 1678, e publicado em 1690. Dividido em capítulos, a obra oferece uma discussão da natureza e propriedades da luz. Além disso, mostra seu favorecimento à ideia de que a luz se comporta como uma onda, ao contrário do que Isaac Newton propusera alguns anos antes. (pt)
  • Dans son Traité de la lumière, écrit à Paris en 1678 mais publié douze ans plus tard lorsqu'il réside aux Pays-Bas, Christian Huygens expose ses conceptions sur la nature de la lumière qui permettent d'expliquer les lois de l'optique géométrique établies par René Descartes. À la différence d'Isaac Newton qui pensait que la lumière était composée de particules émises par la source lumineuse qui venaient frapper l'œil de l'observateur, Huygens conçoit la lumière comme formée d'ondes sphériques qui se propagent dans l'espace à la manière des ondes sonores. De plus il propose que chaque point d'un front d'onde soit lui-même origine d'une onde sphérique secondaire. (fr)
