Following in the steps of Thomas Young (q. v. post), Fresnel for the first time established the undulatory theory of light 

 on a firm basis, and his investigations in this connexion on the interference, polarisation, diffraction, aberration, and 

 double refraction of light are of the first importance. He also invented the compound lighthouse lenses known by his 

 name. 



'His transcendent mathematical abilities enabled him to give the [undulatory] theory a generality unattainc-d by 

 Young. He grasped the theory in its entirety ; followed the ether into the hearts of crystals of the most complicated 

 structure, and into bodie- subjected to strain and pressure. He showed that the facts discovered by Mains, Arago, 

 Brewster, and Biot were so many ganglia, so to speak, of its theoretic organism, deriving from it sustenance and explana- 

 tion . . . Fresnel died, leaving behind him a name immortal in the annals of science.' Prof. TyndalL 



According to the ' Times' passim, the luminiferous ether was quite cavalierly treated at the York Meeting of the British 

 Association, having been all but ousted by the newer charms of radio-activity and the transmutation of elements.
