Does it matter which edition of book is used with Omnibus?

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.

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?

I was looking at II. Thanks!

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.
