 Description: Sing, goddess, the wrath of Achilles Peleus' son, the ruinous wrath that brought on the Achaians woes innumerable, and hurled down into Hades many strong souls of heroes, and gave their bodies to be a prey to dogs and all winged fowls; and so the counsel of Zeus wrought out its accomplishment from the day when first strife parted Atreides king of men and noble Achilles.

 Title:  The Genius of Sequoyah  
 Published:  2004 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: Sequoyah, the much-honored creator of the Cherokee syllabary, the means by which anyone speaking the Cherokee language could become literate, was an unlettered man himself until he finished his system. Nonetheless, the Cherokee historian Dr. Emmett Starr reported, written language held a particular fascination for him. Seeing the written page used by white people, Sequoyah at first thought that each letter stood for a word. Upon closer examination, however, he concluded that this could not be true, and that a better explanation was that each letter represented a sound. This idea, which came to him around 1809, was the seed from which the Cherokee syllabary grew.
