Quiver0f10 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I thought I had asked this but a search showed nothing :confused: Does it matter which edition of book when using Omibus? It would save a lot of money to use whatever book the library has instead of purchasing the one recommended by VP. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellifera Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 When the book is a translation it can help to use the same one as Omnibus used. For some books it doesn't matter at all. Which Omnibus are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellifera Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I would recommend using the version of Confessions that they use. If you have or have access to a good version of Beowulf I would use that. We used my copy of The Song of Roland and didn't have any problems with doing it that way. I don't think it would matter with any of the secondary reading. The assignments are by chapter, not page number. I would suggest that when you read the Shakespeare plays you use a version with vocabulary notes because that will make it easier.
