first article submitted

Long time, no see... doesn't mean I haven't been busy.
I finally finished writing up my first article on parkour, presenting results of the media discourse analysis and - or: as compared to results of - field work.
Presently, the article is under review... let's see what the reviewers have to say!

(i.e., here, looking for the main expressions, and therefore issues and defining characteristics, raised in different sources.)
