=Italics=

In manuscript, a horizontal line drawn under a letter or word is a sign
for the printer to use italic type.

=82a. Quoted titles of books, periodicals, and manuscripts are usually
italicized.=

Right: I admire Shakespeare's _Hamlet_. [The italics make the
reader know that the writer means, _Hamlet_ the play, not
Hamlet the man.]

Right: John Galsworthy's novel, _The Patrician_, appeared in
serial form in the _Atlantic Monthly_.

Note 1.--When the title of a book begins with an article (_a_, _an_, or
_the_), the article is italicized. But _the_ before the title of a
periodical is usually not italicized.

Note 2.--It is correct, but not the best practice, to indicate the
titles of books by quotation marks. The best method is to use italics
for the title of a book, and quotation marks for chapters or
subdivisions of the same book. Example: See _Encyclopedia Britannica_,
Vol. II, p. 427, "Modern Architecture".

=b. Words from a foreign language, unless they have been anglicized by
frequent use, are italicized.=

Right: A great noise announced the coming of the _enfant
terrible_.

Right: A play always begins _in medias res_.

=c. The names of ships are usually italicized.=

Right: The _Saxonia_ will sail at four o'clock.

=d. Words taken out of their context and made the subject of discussion
are italicized or placed in quotation marks.=

Right: _So_ is a word faded and colorless from constant use.

Right: The _t_ in the word _often_ is not pronounced.

=e. A word or passage requiring great emphasis is italicized.= This device
should not be used to excess. The proper way to secure emphasis is to
have good ideas, and to use emphatic sentence structure in expressing
them.
