I've just started work on designing an ebook of Notre-Dame de Paris for the MobileRead library, and am having problems with a Greek word found in the preface, the table of contents, and a chapter heading. I've attached a screen clipping what I've done so far through HTML. But in the original the second Alpha has what one would call in a French word an acute accent. I can't find any HTML entity which could do this, though Α or & # 913; will produce a capital Alpha without an accent.

Is there a special term for a Greek capital Alpha with an acute accent? Does anyone know of a way to produce it in HTML?
