To impart knowledge about this typo-graphic feature and to find a general definition as writing style, the author has compiled style patterns to examine the tangible forms, characteristics and functions of "italic nature". Furthermore, he deals intensively with the historical development of italics from handwriting to digital typesetting. This monograph is the first detailed treatise on this topic, and is aimed at all those who deal with letters professionally or privately
