    Titles in quotation marks that include (or in unusual cases consist of) something that requires italicization for some other reason than being a title, e.g., a genus and species name, or a non-English phrase, or the name of a larger work being referred to, also use the needed italicization, inside the quotation marks: "Ferromagnetic Material in ...

    Generally, use only one of these styles at a time (do not italicize and quote, or quote and boldface, or italicize and boldface) for words-as-words purposes. Exceptionally, two styles can be combined for distinct purposes, e.g. a film title is italicized and it is also boldfaced in the lead sentence of the article on that film (see WP ...

    Grandpa was in World War II, not "World War II". As for the italicized case, we don't use quotation marks and italics at the same time; "failing" to also use quotation marks with the (incorrectly) italicized #4 examples doesn't create any ambiguity, and adding them doesn't make the example any clearer, just twice as wrong.

    I would like to italicize Cyrillic, in references to academic publications, because the italic is not used as "distinction from the surrounding material", as you phrase it, but to convey meaningful information to the reader of the citation: when we cite a chapter in a book, or an article in a journal, we leave the chapter or article name ...

    Because "Dawn Treader" is the name of a ship, it gets double italics, or, in other words, is turned back to Roman text, thus reading: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
