It's Emphasis tags for text you want emphasized (since tags describe
content), and then you use a style sheet to dictate an italic
appearance. If you want italics but don't mean to emphasize (say, in
your copyright notice or something), just use a <span class="copyright">
section with a style sheet rule to italicize them.
