  Foundations of Science recently published a rebuttal to a portion of our
essay it published two years ago. The author, G. Schubring, argues that our
2013 text treated unfairly his 2005 book, Conflicts between generalization,
rigor, and intuition. He further argues that our attempt to show that Cauchy is
part of a long infinitesimalist tradition confuses text with context and
thereby misunderstands the significance of Cauchy's use of infinitesimals. Here
we defend our original analysis of variousmisconceptions and misinterpretations
concerning the history of infinitesimals and, in particular, the role of
infinitesimals in Cauchy's mathematics. We show that Schubring misinterprets
Proclus, Leibniz, and Klein on non-Archimedean issues, ignores the Jesuit
context of Moigno's flawed critique of infinitesimals, and misrepresents, to
the point of caricature, the pioneering Cauchy scholarship of D. Laugwitz.
