Any number of things:
1. The title of a book is often set off in italics.
2. The title of a magazine is often set off in italics.
3. Latin words (or words in other foreign languages) are often italicized.
4. Sometimes it's for emphasis.
Hope this helps.

Italics can be used for a couple of things:
1) emphasis on certain words
2) a title

It can mean a couple of things. If capitalized then obviously it's a title. Italics can also be used to convey emotion.

From my experience, it's called a HIGHLIGHT. A highlighted word tends to carry more emphasis--or *impact*--for that sentence.
It tends to draw the reader to that one word by giving it more oomph.
(Notice that I used asterisks in place of italics to highlight the word IMPACT.)

Totally depends. Could be a quote. Could be a proper name. Could be misspelled and the author wishes to point out that they know it is wrong.

It might be a title of something. Or something that should be emphasized. In some stories, it's a thought.
