 It is the last book Radcliffe published during her lifetime (she would go on to write the novel "Gaston de Blondeville", which was published posthumously in 1826).
 "The Italian" has a dark, mysterious and somber tone, and concerns the themes of love, devotion and persecution by the Holy Inquisition.
 The novel also deals with issues prevalent at the time of the French Revolution, such as religion, aristocracy, and nationality.
 Radcliffe's renowned use of veiled imagery is considered to have reached its height of sophistication and complexity in "The Italian"; concealment and disguise are central motifs of the novel.

 The novel is noted for its extremely effective antagonist, Father Schedoni.
