Abstract
We present the Lagrangian formalism for multiform fields on Minkowski space time based on the multiform and extensor calculus. The formulation gives a unified mathematical description for the relativistic field theories includ ing the gravitational field. We work out examples including the Dirac-Heste nes field on the gravitational background.
