The paper contains a short survey on the main generalizations of Finsler geometry. These generalizations were obtained i) relaxing the requirements in the definition of the fundamental Finsler function arriving at the Lagrange geometry, ii) replacing the Finsler metric by a general pseudo-Riemannian metric in the vertical bundle over the tangent manifold as is done in the generalized Lagrange geometry, iii) replacing the tangent bundle with the cotangent bundle, so the Hamilton geometry is obtained, iv) going to the geometry of the higher order Lagrangians. A selective list of references with 19 items is provided. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0931.00037].
