R help - Apr 2012 - Italicize journal article in mid text

Hi, 

I need to italicize the journal in a citation but have thus far failed.  How
can I make 'Journal of Something' below italic but leave the rest plain?

mtext( "See Author1 and Author2 (2007) , \"Title\",  Journal of
Something ,
pp. 1-50.", side = 3, outer = T,  line=-0.75, cex = 0.7, at= 0.04, adj = 0,
font = 1, family = "Times")  

Thanks

See

?plotmath

For example, try this:

plot(1, 1)
mtext(expression(paste(
        "See Author1 and Author2 (2007), \"Title\", ", 
        italic(Journal), " ", italic(of), " ",
italic(Something),
        ", pp. 1-50.")))
