Regular variation comes up in a variety of fields of mathematics, in particular, in probability theory. The books by the reviewer on extremes and by V. M. Zolotarev on stable distributions contain detailed sections on the history of their subject matter. The author selects a few references from the history of the cited fields and adds subjective comments on their contents and relations. The paper is dedicated to J. L. Teugels on the occasion of his retirement.
