Omnibus I - Text with CD-ROM

Biblical and Classical Civilizations

by Douglas Wilson (Editor), G. Tyler Fischer (Editor)
Publisher: Veritas Press
Hardcover, 605 pages
Price: $100.00

This one-of-a-kind program was created by hiring numerous experts to organize and lead you through the study of the great works from antiquity, teaching with the emphasis on ideas, not simply information. Omnibus I is, in essence, a collection of study and discussion guides (with daily lesson plans), offering commentary on the books, as well as each book's historical context and the ideas it considers, always comparing those ideas with biblical truth. This well-thought-out, manageable tool, with daily lesson plans, will make teaching and interacting with the greatest works of Western Civilization both enjoyable and profitable. With Trinitarian thinking at the core of the study, students will learn to interact with timeless material in a wise and godly way. In Omnibus I, the students will cover history, literature and theology from the dawn of time to the fall of Rome. They will also apply and further develop their skills in composition, logic and aesthetics.

This book includes the Teacher's CD-ROM, which offers the entire text along with the answer key. If you have additional students or don't want the answer key (with the accompanying expense), you may order the text without the CD-ROM.
