The sociology of knowledge approach to discourse assumes that cultural knowledge—and thus cultural spaces—are generated and shared through discourse. Actors’ shared perceptions of vulnerability and practices to create resilience should be interrelated with knowledge provided by the relevant discourses of local and historical influence. However, these assumptions have not been thoroughly examined. This study compares river-related knowledge (concerning human–river relationships: ecocentric and anthropocentric perspectives) in the German and Polish literary canons, with knowledge provided in the relevant public media and the shared knowledge of local populations in flood-prone city districts along the Odra River. It concludes that actors’ river-related knowledge interrelates with the knowledge produced by national and regional discourses and that culturally shared ideas of vulnerability and resilience are discursively embedded.

在知识社会学话语方法假设文化知识——以及文化空间——是通过话语产生和共享的。行动者对脆弱性的共同看法和创造复原力的做法应该与当地和历史影响的相关话语提供的知识相互关联。但是，这些假设尚未经过彻底检查。本研究比较了德国和波兰文学经典中与河流相关的知识（关于人与河流的关系：生态中心和人类中心观点）、相关公共媒体提供的知识以及沿线易受洪水影响的城市地区当地居民的共享知识。奥德拉河。
