Within symbolic AI, the most relevant work in KR is the 
work in concept-languages (a new generation of KL-ONE 
langauges). these languages combine terminological reasoning
frame-based languages (and sorted logics.)

Plenty of references to CLASSIC and the LILOG work at DFKI,
Germany, in AI journals, and i would say as a starter in
the Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series (Springer).
From there you will of course explore a much larger web...

hope that helps.
