Roman language, literature and theatre was very limited, while the Greek array was broad, so Greek culture was taught in education of the upper classes, and Greeks were imported as free or slave tutors to provided the teaching of it in households or schools.
Traditional Roman aristocrats and the Roman lower classes were not interested, sticking to their own culture. Those who followed the Greek add-on culture were known as Philhellenes = Greek lovers/friendly.
Most families who could afford Greek tutors became philhellenes. They admired Greek art, sculpture, architecture, literature, and culture.
Greeks to a small extent. The Jews were another major group to resist Roman culture.
The main Greek influence has come through the way it influenced Roman architecture. Much of Renaissance architecture was influenced by Roman architecture. Brunelleschi, the great early Renaissance architect went to Rome to study Roman buildings. A big influence was the discovery of De Architecta, a text book on (Roman) architecture by Vitruvius, a Roman architect and engineer. Palladium was the father of the Palladian style which became very popular in Britain, which was based on the roman mansion. The neo-classical style was based on gthe Graeco-roman style. The dome was a great Roman achievement The Pantheon and the Hagia Sophia have been regarded as yardsticks for later domes.

The early Romans were influenced by the Sabines, Etruscans and Greeks. Over time the influence of the former two waned and the influence of the Greeks increased. The Romans adopted the architectural styles of the Greeks and copied the statues of the Greeks. They adopted some Greek gods and many Greek myths and liked their gods to the Greek ones. The Romans also adopted Greek medicine, some Greek games and the Greek catapult. The earliest professional teachers in Rome were Greeks. The Roman elite looked up to the Greeks. They received an education in both Latin and Greek and the pinnacle of their education was a stay in Greece to study Greek philosophy.
The Greeks influenced Roman civilization in many ways. However, one of the most important ways was in the Arts and Crafts area.

It was the Greeks. This started very early as the Greeks settled in southern Italy and Sicily between the 8th and 6th century BC. The Greeks were a more advanced civilisation and had a profound impact on the Italic peoples they came in contact with. The Italic peoples at that time lived in daub and-wattle huts. They learnt to build stone temples and houses from the Greeks. They did not have a written language and adopted the western Greek alphabet. Trade with the Greeks also developed. Over time the Roman elites came to look up to the Greeks. They received an education in both Latin and Greek and spoke Greek fluently. The pinnacle of education for elite men was a stay in Greece to learn Greek philosophy. Rome had Greek libraries as well as Latin ones. Roman art became Greco-Roman art because it was influenced by Greek art. The Romans absorbed substantial parts of Greek mythology and Roman goods became linked to Greek gods. They also adopted the divination books of the Sibyls, who were Greek oracles.

Roman society is said to have been influenced by two cultures, the Greeks and the Etruscans. The Etruscans more than likely influenced Roman society and Roman culture more heavily because Rome was surrounde4d by Etruscan territory and was ruled by Etruscan kings. The Greek influence came about as a result of Roman expansion.
The Greeks did not actually influence Roman religion. The Greeks and Romans worshiped the same major gods only under different names. The same can be said of other cultures. It seems that the ancient deities were universal even though they were called by different names.The Greeks did not actually influence Roman religion.

There is not such a thing as Roman classical civilisation. There is not such a thing as classical civilisation either. The term is classical, period/age/era or classical antiquity. It refers to the cultural period in the history of the Mediterranean Sea when the culture of the Greeks and Romans became intermingled through the cultural influence of the former on the latter. It is therefore related to the Greco-Roman world. The Greeks also had a strong influence of the eastern part of the Roman Empire (the eastern Mediterranean) because they had ruled this area for several centuries before the arrival of the Romans. Greek was the lingual franca in this area. The education of Roman elite men was both in Latin and Greek and these men were fluent in Greek.
well Julius Ceaser's assassination affected the roman empire and then his brother Augustus became leader and started the time of the Pax Romana ( a long period of time of all peace). that's all!
