Rome had a very austere and limited culture, and many upper class Romans became addicted to Greek art, the arts, theatre and language. These were known as Philhellenes - lovers of things Greek.
An apocryphal story was that when a Greek musical ensemble was playing sweetly in a theatre in Rome to a silent audience, one member made a false note and the leader leant over and tapped him with his instrument to admonish him. The crowd shouted approval and encouragement. The puzzled leader leant over and hit him again. The crowd roared with delight. The ensemble got the message and all began to lay about each other to the delighted roars and screams of the audience.
General Roman appreciation of the arts was limited and superficial - the masses preferred the biff to the sweet. Only the upper class appreciated the finer things, and some of those such as Cato the Elder were rusted on to the old austere ways. Greece gave Rome the arts, Rome gave Greece the killings of the amphitheatre.
