    The author makes a synthesis of some previously published work, concerning several generalized structures on manifolds [\textit{I. Vaisman}, Adv. Geom. 7, 453--474 (2007; Zbl 1126.53054); Geom. Dedicata 133, 129--154 (2008;Zbl 1138.53033); \textit{M. Gualtieri}, Ph.D. thesis (2003) \url{arXiv:Math.DG/0401221})]. For a differentiable manifold \(M\), the key constructions are: a ``big tangent bundle'' \(T^{big}M:=TM \oplus T^*(M)\); a canonical semi-Riemannian metric on \(T^{big}M\), of signature zero; the Courant bracket on \(T^{big}M\). Definitions and properties are given for generalized almost complex manifolds, generalized almost product manifolds, generalized Kähler manifolds, generalized almost contact manifolds and generalized Sasakian manifolds. There are also two new results, characterizing normal generalized almost contact structures and generalized Sasakian structures, respectively.
