I just took delivery of my first Rampley pocket square and I have to say I'm absolutely thrilled. The quality is far superior to any other pocket squares that I own. The complimentary collar stays were a nice gesture, too. First rate company, first rate product. Trevor - Canada
Over the past couple years I've become more cognizant of the spark that a well-chosen pocket square can add to tailoring, and the exceptional designs from Rampley & Co are a big reason why. The classic art pictured on each square is undoubtedly the brand's signature appeal, but even smaller details like intricate border patterns and hand-rolled edges give each piece a one-of-a-kind feel.
From a person that feels naked without a pocket square in the chest pocket of my jacket, I can honestly say that Rampley & Co. have changed the way I look upon pocket squares. It is truly a great joy wear a piece of art in your pocket. They feature carefully selected artwork motifs, beautifully printed on high-quality silk and well handcrafted with nice hand-rolled edges.
For the past couple of years I have followed the journey of Rampley & Co and I must say I am such a fan of their work. Their attention to details, fine British construction and ability to uniquely collaborate with an array of businesses, both fashion and art based, not only pulls at my heartstrings, but as a stylist and lifestyle blogger, gives me sincere hope that art and fashion do have a mainstream future together.
We believe that 40cm is the minimum size for a high-quality silk pocket square. Any smaller and it will slide down inside your pocket with any movement of your jacket, as well as limit the number of folds you can achieve. It goes without saying we would never advocate any form of pocket square holder. All our pocket squares are either 42cm x 42cm or 40cm x 40cm, unless they are linen or wool based in which case, a 33cm x 33cm square works perfectly with the more structural fabrics.
We take the utmost care in printing our pocket squares, which results in truly remarkable levels of detail. Faces, objects and colours are sharp and well defined to give a truly stunning finish. We also take exceptional care with the colour bleed, so the print is almost as crisp on the back as it is on the front, allowing for an unlimited number of folds.
The art of hand rolling pocket squares is a unique craft and truly makes each piece individual and unique. We feel that the precision and care taken by our skilled artisans gives each square its own unique character, finish and feel. To create the finest rolled hems, the edge of the silk must be softy turned over with a handheld needle and then small stitches are inserted approximately one half to one centimetre apart around the edge, creating a supple yet prominent border.

Pocket squares should ideally complement your shirt and tie, usually in a colour that works with these accessories. If you are going for a formal event, choose a conservative fold, or flashy folds are just as suitable for other occasions. You should not add your pocket square to your shirt or overcoat, but only with a jacket or suit.
There is no persistent rule for choosing pocket squares. While it is common to match the pocket square with your tie or shirt, it is not some mandatory fashion advice that you need to follow. At times, a pocket square can become an element in itself, especially for casual occasions, not matching with anything at all. If you wish to play safe, choose a secondary colour from your tie or shirt and create that more put-together look.

We provide evidence that incumbent and entrant firms' access to business group deep pockets affects the entry patterns in product markets. Relying on a unique French data set on business groups, our paper shows that entry into manufacturing industries is negatively related to the cash hoarded by incumbent affiliated groups and positively related to entrant groups' cash. In line with theoretical predictions, we find that the impact of group cash holdingson entry is more important in environments where financial constraints are pronounced. The cash holdings of incumbent and entrant groups also affect the survival rate of entrants in the three- to five-year post-entry window. Overall, our findings suggest that internal capital markets operate within corporate groups and affect the product market behavior of affiliated firms by mitigating financial constraints.

104ROCKY MOUNTAIN REVIEW appropriateness are given as the regulative rules of textuality. Following one chapter on the evolution of text linguistics and another on the assumptions inherent in a procedural approach to the study of the text (operationality and human plausibility are decisive criteria, with motivation and strategies of text users important topics of investigation), each of the seven standards of textuality is explained and illustrated. Literary texts are thoroughly integrated into the discussion, with a knowledgeable treatment of some of their special distinctions. The book is especially readable for its wide-ranging selection of sample texts, many of which are literary. The authors have provided analyses of many of these to illustrate how the theory they set forth may be applied. Another outstanding feature is the extensive thirtypage bibliography. Careful indexing makes the book easy to use. Scholars who have found recent titles by Jonathan Culler, Barbara Herrnstein Smith, or Mary Louise Pratt useful will find continuity and expansion ofmany oftheir ideas in Introduction to Text Linguistics. LEE H. DOWLING University of Houston The Pocket Oxford Russian Dictionary: Russian-English, English-Russian. Compiled by Jessie Coulson (Russian-English) and Nigel Rankin and Delia Thompson (English-Russian). Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1981. 817p. The main desideratum in any pocket-sized dictionary is its compact format and portability. The assets of these features pale, however, if the dictionary fails as a reliable compendium of contemporary vocabulary, idioms and colloquial expressions. The new Pocfcet Oxford Russian Dictionary admirably fulfills this task, and will be welcomed as a useful and convenient resource by students and instructors alike. Each of the Russian-English and English-Russian sections includes approximately 30,000 words reflecting everyday, technical, colloquial, andidiomatic usage. The first section, compiled by Jessie Coulson, is an update of her 1975 dictionary, which credited itself well as an abridgement of Professor M.C.C. Wheeler's hardbound Oxford Russian English Dictionary (1972). Adhering to much of the structural format of the latter, Mrs. Coulson's dictionary accompanies its entries with an abundance of necessary grammatical information on stress change, verb conjugation, and declension forms for nouns and adjectives. For example, the genitive singular ending is given for all nouns, followed by endings for other cases which show an irregularity ofendingor a change ofstress. Mrs. Coulson's dictionary distinguishes itself as a welcome improvement over Romanov's Pocfcet RussianEnglish Dictionary, as well as other paperback dictionaries on the market which lack the thorough, up-to-date treatment of the Pocfcet Oxford Russian Dictionary. The English-Russian section ofthis dictionary was compiled largely by Mr. Nigel Rankin and, following his death in 1979, by Miss Delia Thompson. Drawing from smaller Oxford dictionaries, the English-Russian section likewise excels as a thorough compendium of general, technical, and idomatic aspects of the language, presented in a concise yet imminently readable format. Particularly helpful are the English glosses which Mr. Rankin and Miss Thompson employ in order to render the appropriate usage for a given entry. For example, the adjective "abject" is accompanied by three glosses distinguishing "miserable," "low," and "craven." Book Review105 Likewise the adverb "again" is differentiated as to "once more" and "anew." The noun "measure" is glossed for "size," "degree," or "limit." In comparing the Oxford Pocket English-Russian Dictionary with two other widely-used English-Russian paperback dictionaries, I found the former to be incomparably moreserviceable, upto -date, and precise in meaning and application. Firmly bound in a deceptively small (5" ? 3 3/4") format, the Russian-English, English-Russian halves of this dictionary comprise 817 pages of current, useful words and expressions. KEVIN J. MCKENNA The University of Utah Jonathan Culler. The Pursuit of Signs: Semiotics, Literature, Deconstruction. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1981. 242p. This collection of essays "pursues signs" to some extent, but more, it pursues in various forums and on various occasions the thesis of Culler's celebrated Structuralist Poetics. The preface of the earlier book announces: My claim in this book is that in trying to revitalize criticism and free it from an exclusively interpretive role, in developing a programme which would justify it as a mode of knowledge and enable us to defend it with fewer reservations, we might do well...
