Abstract
This paper is part of the lecture given at the TH Division of CERN and devoted to the CXXV anniversary of the birthday of Elie Cartan (1869-1951). It is shown how the methods of differential geometry, due to E. Cartan, were applied to the construction of the supersymmetry transformation law and to the actions for Goldstone fermions and supergravity.
