In this paper we approach the theme of schools and researchers of literary imagology. Like any discipline, literary imagology has a series of schools and representatives who have contributed to its development. In the paper, by the notion of "school" we mean the area of a spoken language, which means two or more states that speak the same language. Due to this fact we have registered schools in different language areas. In the beginning of the paper we propose an analysis of the contribution of the French school and its researchers, the merit of which is due to the emergence of this discipline, and then we outline the contribution of the other schools, such as: the German-Austrian, Portuguese, Spanish, Romanian, Russian, Polish, Chinese schools etc. In this article we notify the contribution of each school and its basic representatives, in shaping the historical, theoretical and methodological course of literary imagology.
