Based the following text (An Introduction to Optics) and using any kind of tool you may find suited to your purpose (including web-based timeline software), could you try to create the chronology of the concept of light throughout history?
Perhaps you could proceed as follows:
First, read the text from beginning to end.
Then, look up the words you don't understand using an online dictionary (http://www.wordreference.com/). Read the whole text again.
Afterwards, try to make a (handwritten) sketch of what your timeline should look like.
Finally, use the web-based timeline software you have chosen to create a chronology of the concept of light.
Feel free to enlarge the information given by the text with any events you consider important to understand the history of light.
