Hellenic culture combines elements of ancient Greek traditions, philosophy, art, and architecture. It encompasses the beliefs, values, and practices of the ancient Greeks and has had a lasting influence on Western civilization.
Symbols, rituals, language, beliefs, values, norms, and social habits can be considered the smaller parts of a culture that combine to form the entire culture. These elements help to shape the behaviors, traditions, and identity of a particular group or society.

Hellenic Studies focus on Greek culture, ancient, Medieval and modern, including Greek immigrant communities abroad.
Alexander the Great helped to preserve Hellenic culture by spreading Greek language and literature throughout the Eastern countries. Alexander understood that in order to control his empire he would have to homogenize them with the Greek language and culture.
The Hellenistic Culture was influenced by Greek (Hellenic) culture blended with Egyptian, Persian, and Indian influences.
The spread of Greek culture.
It didn't. The Macedonian/Greek upper class maintained Hellenic culture, and the ruled mostly continued their own culture.
Hellenism/Hellenic was their word for Greek. The kingdoms which arose from Alexander's empire after his death were called Hellenistic as they were based on Greek civilisation. However this was superficial as most of the peoples in the ex-Persian territories retained their old ways - only the upper classes adopted Greek culture. So the word Hellenistic is used instead of Hellenic to indicate the partial culture 'like Hellenic'.

The original Greek culture is often referred to as "Hellenic" culture. This term encompasses the art, philosophy, religion, and social practices of ancient Greece, particularly during the classical period from the 5th to the 4th century BCE. Hellenic culture laid the foundation for Western civilization, influencing areas such as politics, science, and the arts.
The core of Hellenistic culture is Hellenic - Greek. Greek culture and language were spread by the firetrailing victories of Alexander the Great and his Macedonians through the Anatolia, the Middle East, Egypt and Asia. Depending on the area and the kingdom into which the original Macedonian empire split, we have local mixtures of Hellenic (Greek) and Egyptian, as in Alexandria and the rest of Egypt, which was governed by the Ptolemaic Dynasty, Persian and Syrian in the Seleucid empire, and Buddhist infusions in the Indian and Bactrian (Afghanistan-Turkmenistan) cultures that produced the Indo-Greek civilizations of India and Bactria. There is also traces of Thracian in the areas Thrace, as well as Anatolian cultures like Phrygian and Capadocian, among others, which eventually assimilate linguistically, curturally and ethnically into the Hellenic world.
