In most treatments of the reflecting properties of the conic sections, the properties are stated without proof. In this paper the conic sections are derived from first principles as surfaces which produce specific effects on light rays. For example, the ellipse is taken to be a surface which reflects all rays emanating from one fixed point in a plane ...

This paper tries to make sense of Kant’s scattered remarks about conic sections to see what light they shed on his philosophy of mathematics. It proceeds by confronting his remarks with the source that seems to have informed his thinking about conic sections: the Conica of Apollonius. The paper raises questions about Kant’s attitude towards mathematics
