Abstract: The search for a geometric interpretation of the constrained brackets of Dirac led to the definition of the Courant bracket. The search for the right notion of a “double” for Lie bialgebroids led to the definition of Courant algebroids. We recount the emergence of these concepts.
Keywords: Courant algebroid; Dorfman bracket; Lie algebroid; Lie bialgebroid; generalized geometry; Dirac structure; Loday algebra; Leibniz algebra; derived bracket.
