You might be able to use address@hidden' and address@hidden' to pass
information about "italicness":

  { "slope?" @Yield "No" } @SetContext {
    # the whole document ...

    @I  # this is your <emphasis> tag
    { "slope?" @Yield "Yes" } @SetContext {
      The city of
      { { "slope?" @GetContext } @Case {
          "Yes" @Yield { TimesCE Slope }
          "No"  @Yield { TimesCE Base }
        }
        @Font { { @Char Lslash }... }
    }
 }

This is untested but you get the idea.  This primitives are described in
the Expert's Guide.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
