The anthology _Readings in Knowledge Representation_ by Levesque and
Brachman (eds) 1985 gives some influential papers on the subject.
Specifically, _Intensional Concepts in Propositional Semantic Networks_
by Maida and Shapiro, _On the Epistemological Status of Semantic
Networks_ by Brachman, and _What's in a Link: Foundations for Semantic
Networks_ by Woods are reprinted.  Naturally, these are all concerned
with the implications of semantic networks as a knowledge representation.
A (slightly old) collection of more varied work can be found in
_Associative Networks_ by Findler (ed) 1979.

These should provide some of the pointers you were after...
