  We present a calculation of the virtual Compton scattering amplitude for the
pseudoscalar meson octet in the framework of chiral perturbation theory at
${\cal O}(p^4)$. We calculate the electromagnetic generalized polarizabilities
and compare the results in the real Compton scattering limit to available
experimental values. Finally, we give predictions for the differential cross
section of electron-meson bremsstrahlung.
