I see a lot of instances where <em> was used, but it's really a language
tag that's appropriate. For example:
<em>Podefar</em>, for instance, which is supposed to stand for “Poor
dear foolish rogue,”
The <em>salmi</em>, the <em>consommé</em>, the <em>purée</em>,
In the latter case, these are italicized as Italian/French loan words,
so they would have <i xml:lang="fr"> and not <em>; however these are now
just modern English so italics should be removed. (`Salmi` is of course
`salami`, but it's not sound alike so I suppose we can keep italics here
for clarity.)
Can you review the rest of the <em>s to make sure we're correctly using
<i> instead of <em> and removing <i> for old loan words?

This was done because the cantos were published in chunks. When Byron went to publish cantos VI, VII, and VIII, his publisher John Murray refused; John Hunt became Byron's new publisher and published Cantos VI, VII, and VIII with a preface. Some editions of Don Juan don't include the preface at all.
