Why Rome holds secondary position in the classic literature of antiquity?

∙ 13y ago
Roman scholars had a great respect for Greek literature and and the Greek civ in general (something that carried through the Renaissance, effectively stopping scientific thought) and were more prone to translate and analyse the Greek best plays/poems/essays etc . I believe originality and language to be the main factors.
